My 75 has two screws you access from inside the boot. They screw up through the parcel shelf. Also at the bottom of the seat back from inside the car, there are two screws, then lift up and out...It is a tight fit.

Usually 2 screws that come up from the inside of the top of the boot area into the top lip of the seat. Also could be 2 screws (one on each side) that screw into vinyl tabs on the back leading edge of the seat into the base of the upper seat platform.

No more cars left, Westpaminis is now just a memory, Good luck to all those hard working dealers left out there, We can tell you its not easy. We have fully enjoyed meeting all the fine folks we have in the business.

Yup, take the parcel shelf cover out and there are two screws at the top edge of the seat back. Take them out and the back lifts up and out.

I'm not sure about a 73 but my 77 has two philips screws on the bottom then it pulls straight up easy as pie hope this works. Oh ya the screws are easier to get at once the bottoms out of the way

Light travels faster than sound. That's why some people appear bright till you hear them speak.
