Quick question, how do u remove the back panels??

I know there are 2 cross head crews at the bottom but what about the controls on the side of the seats??
thanks
Neil

pull the handles off.

On the of the passenger side handles you need to take a phillips screwdriver to one of them and remove the rod that the handle sits on.

Maybe you've trapped one of the recline wires. Have a look and see if the wires are moving freely.
