Hi can somebody please tell me how to remove my rear seat from my 944 lux model.I have a water leak into the rh rear footwell and I havent a clue where its coming from. :( I have checked the sunroof drain pipes,rear quarter window seals and tailgate seal for water testing and had no problems so my next move is to take the rear seat out and hopefully trace the leak.Any advice would be much appreciated.
thank you

Unusual for the water to leak in from the back unless it is coming in through the hatch at the top then running down the side panels to the bottom, my 924S (same as pre oval dash 944s) used to leak under the heater fan motor under the bonnet as it is only sealed with mastic which hardens over time I took mine off and re-sealed it but the fasteners are a real pain as right at the back of the dash behind the glovebox. The water used to run in from there down the passenger footwell and end up in the rear footwell if left long enough.

My 944 lets in water at the rear of the sunroof which ends up on dripping on my daughters when they're sat in the back. The sunroof hasn't worked from the switch since I bought the car and lifts at the back right corner at 70mph. One day I'll get around to fixing the problem. Do you have a problem with your sunroof lifting mechanism?

Yes my 924S leaked in via the sunroof and driped on the rear passengers I found replacing only the inner seal did not work and had to replace both inner and outer to get a good watertight seal
