What is the method for removing the seats in a Lavida car?

The method for removing the seats in a Lavida car is: 1. Remove the screws located at the front of the front seat tracks and forcefully slide the seat out; 2. Remove the screws at the rear seat near the calf area, then forcefully lift the seat to remove it. Taking the 2019 Lavida as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of: length 4613mm, width 1765mm, height 1460mm, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. The 2019 Lavida features a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear torsion beam non-independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 122PS, a maximum torque of 145Nm, and a maximum power of 82kW.
I've removed the seats of my Lavida a few times, and it's not a difficult job. First, locate the rail screws at the bottom of the seat—there are usually two at the front and two at the back. A regular screwdriver or wrench will do the trick. Don't apply too much force when loosening the screws to avoid stripping them. Gently push the seat to slide it out of the rails. The Lavida's design is quite user-friendly, making the sliding process smooth. Keep in mind that the front seats might be connected to airbag or seatbelt sensor wires, so carefully unplug the connectors without yanking them. I removed the seats for cleaning once and found a lot of dirt hidden under the carpet—the interior felt much fresher afterward. The whole process takes about 10 minutes, but wearing gloves and safety goggles is safer to avoid injuries or dust in your eyes. No fancy tools are needed; basic household tools will suffice. If you're handy, it's worth a try. If you lack experience, it's better to ask a friend for help.
