There are two bolts below the seat bolster in the rear passenger footwells. Once these are out you can slide the base out and you'll see the bolts that need to be removed o take the seat back out. There are also two behind the centre load through 'door'. Be VERY careful when removing the seats from the car as the brakets are razor sharp and will easily scratch your door sills down to metal if they meet.

Planning on doing exactly the same myself in the next month or so..

I'll then take it somewhere for Geometery setup (one it's had a few miles to settle down).

BX, have you had any prices for the PD springs yet..?
