Removing the Rear Seat Base

Model: Volkswagen Jetta MK 6, A6 - Years 2010-2018
Part: Seat

To remove the rear seat base, do not unscrew any pins or remove any brackets as the seat is simply clipped in; grasp the front part of the seat base and pull it upwards to unclip it, then slide out the rear part, freeing it from the seatbelt attachments; once the seat base is removed, you can proceed with cleaning, washing, and caring for the upholstery more comfortably and thoroughly, or carry out any necessary repairs to the upholstery, such as touching up with appropriate leather paints.
