(As a newbie apologies if I get this wrong!)
Anyone know where I can get a drawing of the front seat lever mechanism for a 2 door rover 25. (It's for my pensioner neigbour). There seems to be wires running down both sides of the seat back to release catches at the bottom. On one side the wire catch at the foot has come off. IT looks like it was crimped onto some sort of wire. I can't find the wire
Can I dismantle the seat at the top to get at this?
Nothing wrong with being a newbie, you're welcome here.
It was their attitude that got some recent newbie a warm welcome ;-)
As for the Rover seat mechanism... probably only the dealers have detailed drawings, but there may be somebody on some of the Rover forums who can help. The wire was likely under some tension and originally off a coil, so it will have twanged up well inside the covers somewhere.
Or there's this option (for spare parts, not for scrapping it ;-)...

Thank you for your reply. I hadn't known there are Rover groups - will find them now.

Usually you include the important bits from the previous post like this, so everyone knows what you're replying to without looking at the previous message.
is very good. Look for the "Ask The Gurus" forum.
As for that one on eBay in the previous post; I'd be a bit wary about buying a seat from a crashed car.
That's a point. It depends *why* it's being broken up.
And with a Rover there could be any number of reasons ;-)
That one's only 3 years old. The worst thing that would have gone wrong on it if it wasn't crashed is losing the first two speeds on the heater fan. I'm sure it's been in a front-end crash. Note the careful camera angle, but he forgot to make sure you couldn't see what looks to me like a deployed airbag ;-).
I would be very very careful under these circumstances, even in the slightest knocks things shift on their mountings or get weakened to the point that the may fail at a later date if salvaged for a new car.
