Excellent guide!  :congrats:

I wanted to fit these a long time ago but wasn't prepared to sacrifice being able to sit low and improve my centre of gravity (and look like a cool OAP!). I doubt if they fit under Recaro's anyway.

If you've got any pics to add to your original post of them installed in the cabin interior, folks would like that.  :happy2:

This was a strange "How to" as I have just removed them. As I sold them, the buyer wanted some instructions. So I thought it easier to post up here than send them to his email and it will be of use to others

No need to unplug anything, just tilt the seat back

you need to order 8x screws N 906 986 06

The 8x that you have ordered are for the 2x brackets, so 6x will be spare

 Great guide Ed. Another mini mod for the list.  :laugh:

Out of interest, how much do the drawers themselves cost?

This^^^

And whatwas robin saying? Can you not fully adjust the seat with these in?

Anyone know why Ed says to disconnect the battery?

I assume it's just incase the airbag loom is disconnected by accident, right?

if you forget and turn the ignition on with the seat unplugged you will get an airbag light on the dash

I've just fitted some of these, the best tip I can give is to screw the fixings in and out of the holes in the seats to clean out the threads before trying to fit the drawer holder, made fitting alot easier. Also I think the amount of fixings in the original post is incorrect, I think you need 2 x N90698606 and 8 x N90999801.
