removing and then installing seats Type 3
Hey there,
I have found a P.I.M.P. pair of front seats to go in my type 3 fastback, and i was wondering if anyone had any tips on removing my old ones and
installing new ones.
Ta James

Right at the front. Push the seat til almost where it stops. Get a long screw driver and push down the little tab on the tunnel side. Give the seat
another push and off it comes. Akward if you don't have a friend.

pull the seat back a bit, sit on it and look down at the top of the rails the seat slides on.(tunnel side)
theres like a tab that sticks up on top of the rail at an angle and catches on the seat base as it slides forward.
use a screw driver to push the tab down as you slide the seat forward again .
whaala, i think

Ok I have run into three problems....
1. my seats aren't moving back or forward 
2. the P.I.M.P. seats I found have been sold, ( mind you this is my own fault for not buying them sooner )
3. I still can't seem to find the tab thing I'm supposed to push down with a screwdriver
So I'm going to give the seats ANOTHER good soak of wd40 and then try and get them moving.
