Technical Removing passenger seat

[wai]

Hi all,

Anyone manage to remove their passenger seat on the Doblo van? I am trying to remove my old amp below the seat. I've tried using a 16mm wrench but it is a bit too small for the 4 nuts. I have tried a 17mm wrench but it is too big.

My guess is the nuts should be using imperial wrench, something like 41/64" or 21/32". Anyone know what is the correct size to use?

Thanks

Hello and welcome to the forum

All my user manual is saying is that the bolts securing the seat to the frame (both front and back) are m8 bolts. Hope this is of some help

They are definately not imperial.

They are definately not imperial.

strange, 16mm wrench cant fit and 17mm wrench is too big to grip the nut properly

I cant find 16.5mm wrench anywhere :bang:

What about an adjustable spanner?

I don't have my Doblo here to check but 17mm sounds very big for seat bolts. Ozzies M8 sounds more likely, which would normally mean a 13mm spanner. I think I did take out the passenger seat once but can't remember what tools were needed. A lot of fixings like that are torx star bit screws these days. A 17mm hexagon socket such as the impact sockets for windy guns would turn a 16mm(ish) bolt.
