Can anyone tell me the secret in getting the drivers seat, (LHD), in the right position to allow removal of the Interior Leisure battery.
Many thanks

if you look carefully there is a little hook along the outside runner.lift this up and your seat will slide further forward...

Like Rob says on standard seats release the smal lever on the side of the seat no bolts involved. If it has got a swiveling seat then it would need to be unbolted.

Mine has the little hook from the picture, but is the Capstain Style seat that turns round. It needs to go round 180 Degs but the steering wheel is in the way. May be its time to get the spanner out then
