How do I remove the plastic on the back of a 2006 bmw 760li seat

You will see a black canister with a cap on it that says CHF 11S on it that is your steering fluid reservoir and that CHF 11S (which is normally green in colour) is the only type of fluid you can put in there, do not put standard power steering fluid in (Red in colour) as this will result in the system not working properly.

look at front part of Seat for either pull tabs or screws or bolts. If still puzzled ring BMW Service department and ask how to remove bottom seat. (can't remember exact method its been a long time since I used to install car phones in BMW's and removed the back seats )

it is under the hood, passenger side rear of bay.

remove air cleaner with clip,
remove filter
remove allen head bolts on plastic cover.
# all connectors i took off the top first.
then change the bottom 1 at a time..

install the ivm back in place with plastic clip in (push back in place)

and follow in reverse...

Most rear seats need to be unlatched from the very bottom on each side. Try sliding the driver and passenger seats fully forward. With your back against the front seat press forward toward the trunk on the bottom of the rear seat on one corner at a time near the floor and lift up. This should release the latch. To replace the seat simply slide the seat back into place with the front slightly raised upward and push the seat in toward the trunk then push down til you hear the latch catch.

Open the glove box, in the back you will see a panel you can remove it by 2 plastic turn pieces on either side remove it and the fuse box and diagram will be exposed the diagram is folded on back side of the piece that you removed

has the cable that opens bonnet snaped have a look at the pully handle to see if the cable is still atached if its snaped its a garage job im afraid as you cannot get at the boot end without it being up a hight

Remove the two plastic covers around the seat belts then pull straight up on the front of the seat (it may take a sharp tug)

There are 4 bolts holding all car seats if you can get at least 2 off than you should be alright as long as you can squees a hacksaw or dremel to be able to cut along the seat rail that will remove the seat so you have access to the other 2.

there's 2. one in the glove box. (flick a black plastic lever down) and one in the trunk of the car. (back right hand corner.)
