I have L7, how do I get to the subs under the seats? Do the seats need to come out? If so, how?

I just want to see them for myself really, out of sheer curiosity.

Thanks

dude, search!

PS between you and I, you do have to remove the seats and it is a pretty easy affair - check out realoem.com to see assemblies and part numbers and stuff.

Don't do this the way the TIS tells you. Because that would me unplugging everything from the seat. Instead simply take out the 4 screws and tilt the seat back. Look at my amp/speaker thread for a photo.

I agree with Bruce. No need to take out the entire seat. Plus, you'll get error codes if you remove some seat wiring.
