How to Remove the Front Seats on a CLK 320
1. Press back on the seat position switch to maneuver the seat backward as far as it will go. Locate the plastic caps on the front of the metal seat rails on the floor. Using a flathead screwdriver, gently pry the caps off to gain access to the bolts.
2. Unbolt the forward-most bolts using a socket wrench. Place the bolts in a safe location. Using the seat position switch, move the seat forward as far as possible, making the rear bolts visible. Repeat this process to remove them as well.
3. Reach under the seat and unplug the wiring connector from the power seat control module. Unplug the cable from the heating element if your CLK 320 is equipped with heated seats.
4. Remove the seat from the vehicle. Repeat this process on the other side to remove the second seat. When finished, place the seats back in the car, reconnect the wiring and securely reinstall the bolts and caps.
