Removing and refitting interior?

As above really, I have now got myself a new interior for the gti. Just wondering if anyone has any tips on removing the seats / door cards etc.

I should be ok with the front door cards; itâ€™s the rears I might have trouble with.

Thanks in advance,
Joe

the interior is easy to come off.
the main thing is to make sure you have all the
screws out which you can see, then it will all pop
off. and to get back on you just pop it back on.
the seats are one allan key bolt at the front of the seat then
just side then back watch the plastic on the runners.
hope this helps.

This is the fairly tricky part on the first picture, if you can see them two silver clips in between the seats, theres a little thing that needs prizing open a lil bit with a flat head screwdriver to slot them out so that the seats can be pulled out.

Also on the opposite side on the second picture theres a little clip that you can pull back with your finger to pop the other sides out, then thats your bases out!:
