    My rear-seat overhaul

    Well, my seats were in extremely sad shape before and I have been working to replace them. This is what i've managed to do so far:
    I first removed the seat back:


    Then I removed the cushion:


    And this is how it looks now:


    I am now stuck on how to remove the trunk carpet from the back of the seat back on an SE-i sedan. I need to remove it so I can install the cover for the seat back, anyone know how to remove it? Also, I have this power steering fluid stains (I think) on my carpet and in the trunk (pics below), anyone have any ideas on how to remove them? Purple power didn't work.

    This is looking sweet, did you do the new seat? It looks good, I'm not sure what to tell you about the stains though..

    Yeah, that's actually the same old seat cushion with a cover over it.

    I got them here. You have to ask for the rear-seat covers. I've got the full set and did my whole car, the old seats were in real rough shape. Most people can't even tell I have seat covers on.

    Re: My rear-seat overhaul

    Looks good. The carpet is clipped onto the back of the seat. There should be 3 clips up top near the headrest. There is one in the center and two on the outside. After you remove those you will see how the carpet kind of tucks under this ledge on the seat frame. If you need pics let me know.

    It was actually $179 for everything combined (front and back seats plus the center console cover), but yeah, for $30 that's a real nice interior you have there.
