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?

It's good if you have someone to help, remove the rear bolts & loosen the fronts, move the seat backwards out from under the front brackets, take out carefully through the passenger side door, easy, just take it slowly

You'll need to tip it forward to get it out but as everyone has said they do come out pretty easy.

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.
