The back seats....

Basicly on the sport they have the flat peice of plastic that goes into a thin rectangle hole on the seats to lock them in.

But on the gsi bench the hole is round....

What do you do here? Do all pre 97 corsas have different locking bits? Is it a case of finding a pre 97 corsa and getting the locking bit off it and swap it over?

the post and pre 97 corsa have a different set up, i did one of my old corsas and all i did was remove the material part and foam from one seat and fitted it on the other, it took about 10mins to do and looked great when it was done

rear headrest guiudes can come out by using 2 flat drivers to pish the ennds in and pull the guide out then you just refit them in the backing once the foam and material are swopped over

How do you unclip the seat covers and remove the foam as it looks like a really tight fit.

you will see arround the eders the material has thin cardboard strips sewn into it, you just push the card strips in and fold them over and they pop off, do this all the way round
