Hey does anybody know how i would begin to take the rear seats out of my '87 Supra? I've never done it before and was wondering if anybody would have any idea how to.

To take the bottom out there are two tabs that you have to pull foward and then the bottom will pop right out. The 2 backs have screws in them that you have to take out.

The tabs are in the front of the seat? also, i have fabric the connects onto the back of the seats.. just cut this?

There are big plastic retainers that hold the carpet to the seat. Pry em out and the carpet is free!

just lift the capet behind the seat...itll expose 2 bolts in the middle of each seat and one on the outside of each seat. i believe you use a 14mm socket on them.

to get the bottom out, pull the 2 tabs towards you. mine were a pain in the ass and i had to pull extremely hard to get them to pull out. i dont know if its like that on every supra tho.

very cool. you think they would be replacable and would i have to notify insurance? haha

damdog05 · 07-18-2006, 04:33 AM

replace them with what? different stock rear seats? i dont think it would be worth tell insurance about it. they might even laugh. idk. but i think youd be safe just replacing them.
