New Jetta rear seat removal method: First, remove the three headrests. Insert your hand at the junction between the seat base and the backrest, and you will find some areas that are clipped. Press the clipped areas downward with your hand, then push outward. After releasing the rear clips, proceed to handle the front clips. There are two U-shaped clips at the front; remove these two clips as well. Then, remove the three fixing bolts under the rear backrest and pull out the six guide sleeves that secure the headrests. The rear seat can then be successfully removed. Jetta is an automobile brand under FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd., a joint venture of the German Volkswagen Group in China. In terms of body dimensions, the new Jetta measures 4501mm in length, 1704mm in width, and 1469mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2604mm. For the interior, the Jetta follows Volkswagen's new interior design style, featuring a larger LCD display on the center console and equipped with USB, SD card, and AUX interfaces.
I just helped my friend remove the rear seats of his new Jetta yesterday, and the process was quite straightforward. First, I emptied the trunk to make it easier to work, then climbed into the back seat. The bottom cushion of the rear seat usually has a pull ring at the front lower corner—just yank it upward, and it flips up. Next, there are clips on both sides at the top of the rear seat backrest. I pressed them in while pulling outward, and they released. The whole process didn’t require any tools, but I had to be careful not to use too much force to avoid breaking the clips. After removing the seats, I found a lot of dust underneath, so it was a good opportunity for a thorough cleaning. When putting them back, just align and press them into place—they fit quite securely. It took me about 15 minutes to finish, saving both money and hassle. I’d recommend trying this yourself more often.
