hi, was wondering if anyone could help me.? on the 1.2 8v 1998 corsa b how do you get the fan bits out above the cd player? the adustable bits as one is broken on mine, and how mnay bolts is there to take the seats out? and the whole interior? and my rear seat from the car i was takin the interior out of the rear seat is stuck it doesnt move,

if anyone can help it would be great

4 torqx bolts for the seats, very very hard to remove tho! alot of elbow grease will be required!
also watchout if your car has seatbelt pre-tentioners make sure you put the red plastic fork in to the slot on the canister, or it may go off when you attemp to remove it

think of an airbag going off you get the idea lol!

as for the blowers you need a flah hed screwdriver and a big of cardboard so you dont damage the dash
move the vents as low as possible then slip the screwdriver up and prise it down, if will make a nasty klick like somthing has snapped but dont worry it hasnt broken (atleast if you have done it correctly)

hope this helps

[jordyp]

yeah thanks, where would i get the fork from? and i could only see 1 bolt at back of the seats?

[Octane2097]

the plastic fork for the pretentioner canister should be attached to it, no need to get one you should already have one
theres 4 bolts one on each corner of the seat or 2 on each rail.

[jordyp]

well when i looked i could only see 1, is it hard to get to them? do you need to take the covers off for them? and see for the rear door cards how do they come off?

[Octane2097]

i couldnt anwser honesty its been a while since i have seen a B these days
when i removed mine it had 4 torqx bolts one at each corner of the seat.
as for back seats i aint sure i never removed them, altho i did have a problem with the seats being jammed up, they woundt fold flat
the catch was broken so just left it

[jordyp]

thanks mate and the rear seats wont go right back, there jammed on the first setting, its crap cause everyone who sits in the back hit there head of the roof lol

[Octane2097]

might have to break it to get it off, then secure it down some other way
i never had ppl in the back so never saw it as a problem with mine!

[jordyp]

awryt, when i take it out il have a look to see what i can do, see for the panel with thecd player and heatin setting on it? i took off all the bolts and evreythng that was in the way, but the whole thing was coming off not just the front plastic any help thanks?

There is only 2 bolts that hold the front seats in a Corsa B and there right at the back of each of the runners on the seats. When those 2 bolts are out just pull the seat back and it will slot out because instead of bolts at the front there is a clip-style thing at the front of each of the runners that holds the seat down at the front. The back seat is simple to take out. The foam bit only has 2 star screws holding it on and 3 or 4 torqx bolts holdingthe back of the seat on. I changed the full interior in my Corsa to SXI seats in less than an hour, its quite easy to get it all bk together once everything is out. Hope this helps a bit.

[jordyp]

yeah thats great mate thanks, is it easy for the carpet and that to come out?

[billywhite88]

Oh are u taking the carpet out aswell mate? I didnt take my carpet out but it didnt look 2 difficult at all to do, i think it would probably just pull out from the back once the seats are all out, unless the plastic floor trims maybe restrict it from moving?

[jordyp]

yeah im taking it out, how do you get the door panels off? the thingy for the window is stoppin it coming off and get figure out how to get it off any help please?
