I want to replace the front seat back panels. How do I remove them & where can I buy them from
thanks
Dave

They pull off several metal clips in the back of seat frame attached to the plastic panel and the recline lever handles usually also need unscrewing.
New panels available from your local Mini Dealer spares department or maybe online here:

Good secondhand maybe from here:

I have posted some pdf files from 'Modern Mini' magazine in the Link below which should also help (you may need to register with MiniTorque.com to be able to read them):
