Hi All

Is there an easy way to remove the plastic panel fitted to the back of the front seats? I daren't just pull at it as I can see the plastic stressing when I do, is there a nack to this?

You have to pull sharply and strongly the upper corners to left/right to unclip them --> For example, the upper left corner has to be pulled to the left to unclip it. They can be tight!
When both corners are unattached, you just pull the cover upwards and there it is.

Here you can see the upper corner clips:
