Tried this last night, but didnt get far.
Took the plastic trim off from underneath the door, then went to take the bolt out, but ended up taking all the grip out of the bolt instead.
Anyway, Im hoping to get that sorted later, but where are the rest of the bolts? I couldnt see much at all.
Cheers

Do you need the seats and frames completely removed?

only 2 bolts hold it in one under the trim and one towards the centre of the car, its a good idea to spray them from underneath with wd40 and leave for a few days as they normally seize

Its only 2 screws if you take the subframes out though. Its easier to take the seats and subframes out as one rather than take the seat off as above.
Mave sure you have the right torx socket though because theyre gonna be a real pain if you start rounding them off, the WD40 idea is a good one

That great guys, thanks, but where would the two screws be if i were just to remove the subframes and seats as 1?
Is there a such thing as a t35 torex bit? t30 seems slightly small and t40 is too big.

Yeah there is a T35 bit, you slide the seat fully forwards and the screws are in the runners behind the seat. Once youve got them out you lift the back of the seat a bit and slide it forward and it will unhook its self from the front

The one on the inside next to the handbrake is in the centre of the runner where Ive circled and the one near the door is behind the runner, the same bolt that holds the back of the pre-tensioner
