  • floor carpet replacement
  • gluing the car floor with noise insulation
  • upholstery of seats with leather or other material

In order to remove the front seats on Lada Samara cars, you will need a tool such as:

  • 8 mm head (or torx e10 for later car releases after 2007)

  • 13 mm wrench or head

Removal and installation of front seats on VAZ 2114 and 2115

The first step is to disconnect the power wires from the heated seats, if this option is present on your car. Then, using a 13 key or a head, unscrew the 4 nuts securing the front seat tube. This is clearly seen in the photo below:

If it is problematic to do this with the head, then you can use a conventional open-end wrench. The torsion bars should also be pulled out, if necessary, by pulling on each edge with moderate effort.

In this case, the seat bolts in the front of the seat become easily accessible. We unscrew the fastening of the slide on both sides.

Now, lifting the lever, we move the seat forward, thereby freeing up access to the bolt securing the sled in the rear. We also unscrew one bolt on each side:

Replace the seat if necessary and reinstall in reverse order. It is worth noting that if you replace it with a new one, you will have to pay at least 4500 rubles for one new seat in 2114 or 2115. But the quality of the seats sold in the store is obviously worse than the factory ones. Therefore, the best option is to buy used auto-dismantling seats from a fresh car at a more than adequate price.
