someone please tell me how to take the front seats out of a 72 notchback..cheers from the idiot lol

You will find a small leaf spring on the tunnel side runner which must be depressed to allow the seat to slide forward off the runners. The same on all type 3s except the 1973 3 point mounts.

What Rusty says!
Also, use inox on the runners, leave them over night if you can. Mine came off surprisingly well with this treatment.
Goodluck.

Definitely give them the inox treatment, work wonders for me.

Done
Cheers!
