Hi guys, I got new bottom foam part for my Bravo and I was wondering if any of you had removed the cloth cover from the seats.

Today I was cleaning rear seats, so I removed the cover from metal holder, but the cloth was stuck on foam part with some wires. I guess it will be the same for front seats, so how do I remove the cover completely?

The new foam cost me about 15€, but I don't want to damage something there.
 
I finally had some time to do it and it went OK. Front seat is hold by 4 bolts T40, seat belt by 1 17mm and there were 2 connectors under the seat. They can be removed using twi flathead screwdrives.

Bottom piece is hold at front by one long clip - just pry it out, at rear there are 4 hooks - also just use force to unhook the seat cover. On both sides are 3 clips - you can push them from inside.

Then you should be able to remove foam with cover as one piece. Cover is held by 8 clips, that are "C/" shaped, so you just need to unhook them carefuly, while applying pressure to the clip from bottom.

I wasn't able to remove long wire from seat cover, so I had to wash it by hand. Then I put clips back to the new foam, clicker the wire into them and put it all back into the seat.

In photo you can see the 300 000 km difference
