Removing Rear Seats from Ford Puma - Fitting New Leather Interior

Having bought a complete leather interior for my Puma on eBay, the next stage was to remove the rear seats from the Puma so that I could fit the new leather seats and rear door cards.

The first stumbling block was finding the lever to put the rear seat back into the flat position - it was actually behind the rear light cluster not anywhere close to the catch mechanism as in other cars I've owned.

The 4 bolts holding the Ford Puma rear seats in position are Torx T40 bolts on the bottom corner of each side. Once the seat back is flat then it's easy to be able to access and remove these bolts.


Once the 4 bolts have been removed then the seat can easily be taken out of the car and the seat base lifts up and unhooks. The base is clipped in place each side and can be lifted by pulling the seat up either side of the base.

Once the seats had been removed the new leather seats could be fitted.  This photo of my Ford Puma shows the new leather rear seats fitted
