Everything that doesn't belong in the previous categories probably belongs here. Interiour (how are the seats mounted? how to remove the CEM?) and exteriour (how to replace the popup-lights shock absorbers or a door) are discussed here!

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone can give me an idea whether a certain item is accessible/replaceable or whether I have to change my seat.
The lever on the drivers seat which releases the back if the seat to allow rear seat access has snapped off on me
Just wondering if anyone can tell me off hand whether it is possible to get inside the seat somehow to facilitate a repair?
Would this involve removing upholstery (which I don't fancy) or is it doable more easily?
Thanks,
Ade

Further to this, would this constitute an MOT failure?? It's not due yet but what do you reckon?

Not sure on the MOT bit, but the covers come off the seats relatively easily
