VXR interior upgrade
#1
Today's job was to swap over my 2015 factory 'half leather' VXR seats with some 2016 'full leather' VXR seats

I started with the easy part - the rear seat. I removed the bottom section by pulling the rear clips free and then pulling the two front clips out. I then removed one of the side trims covering the outer pivot pin and using a screwdriver lifted the seat pin out of the chassis bracket. Then the larger section simply slides out of the centre bracket, so you can then remove the smaller section without removing the pivot trim. A 18mm socket soon had the seat belt undone.
To refit is a reverse of removal, except you need to remove the white retaining clips from the floorpan, take out the inner black clip from the outer white section, then fit the black clip to the new seat pin and finally slip the white outer piece over the black clip. Then the lower seat section simply clips back into place.

The full leather rears fitted



Next job was the front seats, simply remove the two Torq 50 screws and slide the seat backwards out of the floor pan retaining slots. Disconnect the battery for ten minutes before attempting to disconnect the seat wiring plug. If your astra has an alram then loosen the negative battery clamp, switch the ignition on and then off, within 15 seconds remove the loosened negative battery terminal.

One of each  



I took a photo of the seat wiring loom plugs, just in case anyone wanted one.



And finished, remember to reconnect the battery and follow the dash commands once the ignition is switched on - open and close the windows.



Everything works okay, except I think there is a fuse missing for the heated seat pads because the switches light up and I can hear a relay click when switched on or off. However they do not heat up.



I never bothered to swap over the 2016 door and quarter panels as they are identical to the 2015 items fitted at the factory.
