Hi,
In the last couple days, the BMW E36 Blog went down because of some problems that I had with my host. I’ve been working hard to fix these problems and It was like a nightmare because it seemed first like all the data on this website will be lost. Can you believe this?!
I tried many ways to fix the problem until I found a clever solution that helped me backup everything on the website and export it to the new host .. whoooh It was a relief really!!
Now everything is working smooth as it used to be. I just want to appolojize for the inconvenience that I may have caused to you. Please enjoy your stay and if you have any notes, please let me know.
thanks guys.
best regards,
Tony Sticks

How to remove the rear seats that fold down. Come
over here Kid, Let me show you how to do this!?
First you pop the bottle and open up a Corona, then pop the bottom seat off by
pulling up and then out towards the front of the car. You have to pull on both
sides from the bottom portion of the seat up with both hands. (Pull it quick).
Once you have the bottom seat off, take a 16mm wrench or socket and take your
seat belts off. You then have to open both seats and bring them down. Once they
are down, in the center where the seats meat halfway you are going to see this.
Take a flat tip screwdriver and pry it off from the rear. When you take it off,
it�s going to look like this. You will see 2 latches, one for the left and one
for the right. All you have to do is push the latches to the rear and pull up on
the side that you want. (Look at picture below)
Once you lift up, pull the seat towards the opposite side, and it will come off
the other side and you will see this.
Take that bushing looking thing and pull it out. If it�s to hard, pry it out
with a flat tip screwdriver.
After taking that bushing portion thing out, Place your hand on the top portion
of the side and yank it out. It should look like this.
You then pull up on it and take it off the other little bracket it has on the
bottom. It will look like this. (Picture below).
That is it!! Same thing for the other side. Installation is the same way as
removal.?
Are you looking for more do it yourself procedures (DIY) ? I recommend the Bentley BMW 3 series service manual for you. I got it and I think it’s a gold mine for us -BMW E36 Owners-. If you didn’t grab your copy yet, get it right now! I’m sure you’ll find this book worth every penny you’ve paid for. Get the Bentley BMW 3 series service manual
Wait for more!
best regards,
