Help removing mk2 seat subframe/base

Post

Back to the top
I've got seats from a mk2 in my mk1, planning to sell them to swap for something else and my intention was to keep the subframes but having looked at them I have no idea how to get them off the seats.

Not keen to start undoing clips and breaking stuff incase there's no point, so can anyone offer some advice for a good place to start?

I plan to get rs turbo recaros and use these bases so interested to hear of alternative bases if it's not worth using these. 

Thanks all  0500FD09-7819-4639-B5B4-616B45E6C273.jpeg F45D0253-A646-4FAF-A295-131504517C51.jpeg 6E0E6E4A-746E-4DE3-BBA4-2F4C4F94756C.jpeg 30A28974-6CA1-40D5-AAA8-729A3EE49CD6.jpeg 18D2C026-AA49-4D8D-BD2E-9997822C8BA3.jpeg BAC00A19-FE77-4B7A-AF40-712429A1380A.jpeg FCEA2E7A-FE52-4011-9F45-B5445AA99212.jpeg
