Title: removal of front seat. Post by: grey58fc on December 13, 2009, 09:24:43 PM is it possible to remove the front bench of an FC without taking off the front door?
is there a secret method or just take the doors off? Title: Re: removal of front seat. Post by: FC427 on December 13, 2009, 09:53:17 PM I comes out easy with out removing the doors ??? try again ......FC427......

The only other thing that would make it a problem is if your door hinges are stopping the doors from opening wide enough??? The front door comes off with only a few easy to access bolts anyway so its not a major thing to do. Just mark the hinges carefully before removal and it'll be simple to put it back right.

Post by: grey58fc on December 14, 2009, 02:48:18 PM a lil bit of thinkin and some brute force prevailed it was the door not opening wide enough cos it is up on axle stands a the ones at the back are a bit lower s te door kept swinging closed, there out now and now i cant start wire wheeling all the "stuff up off the floor and start to fix rust ;D
