Can I just ask if the rear seats in a saloon are exactly the same fitments as the estate?
The estate has the release catches so you can fold them down flat, but if seats were removed from a saloon would these have the same release catches?
Many thanks.

hi there
the rear seats are different. the estate don't fold flat (the base doesn't fold up). they have a flap in the load area that 'locks' on to the bottom of the seat back.
the base is slightly different as well. it has a 'lump' under the arm rest (on the base!). the release catches are the same. the side bolsters are different.

Hi Scorpio-Man. I was actually looking to see how the seats work in the sallon as I own an estate myself and am aware of how the seats work in that model.
The reae seats do fold flat, but it's the backs only that move in a forward motion so that the same level of the rear cargo area continues up through the vehicle.
So I presume then that the saloon seat backs do not have any suck catches, which ultimately means you can't take the seats out of a saloon and install in an estate?
