Hi Rusky - here's another picture for you (should have vaccuumed the car first and removed my embarrassingly old iPod though)

Going to tackle this at the weekend. As there's a few images now broken in this post I just wanted to find out whether it's straight-forward to remove the plastic seat back? Do I just pull it away from the seat? Just wanted to ask before I removed the seat.

Creaking Drivers M Sport Seat - NOW FIXED

I like to resurrect this thread if I may and ask a couple of questions.

Since its been a bit colder recently I had a squeak/rattle from the drivers seat.
I have already removed the small plastic side covers and sprayed GT85 in there aswell as tighten up the seats bolts.
This improved things a little but I still have a bit of squeak. With all the photo links not working its not clear to me whats the next step.
I assume its to remove the entire backrest shell but is this easy to do, does it just pull off or is there more to it than that? Is there a technique/any tips for doing this?
I don't want to start pulling on it without being sure that's the right thing to do, looks like it would cost a fortune for a replacement!
Also do I need to be doing anything with the base of the seat and its associated covers etc?

Any help/advice greatly appreciated

Thanks

Hey guys

I’m having this problem lately with my M sport seats. Can anyone post some pics so I can see how to fix this on my car?
