mine was bolted to the car in 6 places, 2 in the middle of the 60/40 split. bracket holding the seatbelt buckles and bolted to the boot.

2 on the passenger side under the plastic trim (back of seat)

2 on the drivers side under the plastic trim

to make it easier you can also remove the bracket holding the 2 sections of the seat together (4 bolts)

I think you need 60/40 rear seats. Check to see if you have the holes for the bolts and if you do it shouldn't be too hard

you need 60/40 split seats but make sure you get pre 97 split seats if yours is pre 97 or the other way round

Your corsa should have the boltholes already there

time for another shitty picture!



the two bits labeled need to be popped out upwards or pushed down through the bottom of the car.
the pic shows post 97 so yours might be different.

and ignore the junk in the boot again

thats with the original 1 piece bench. the split one gets mounted to that mounting point aswell as the side ones.

as said above, yours might be different as mine is post 97
