Hi Guys,

I have a 3 door mk6 fiesta 04 Reg, And on both the drivers and passangers seat the cable that releases the seat for it to tilt forward have broken, So therefor i am unable to use the c ar at present as i cant get the rest of the family in without climbing over the seats.

So i have removed the one seat and i cant see how the cable can be replaced as i dont know how the plastic surround around the lifting leaver is fitted.

Does anyone know how these new cables can be fitted and do i need to remove the lifting leaver and Surround and ifso does anyone know how i do so??

Cheers in Advance.

    This is a common problem with the mk6's. I've never done one myself but I know the whole rear seat fabric has to be removed as the cable runs right down to the base of the seat.
