Installation recommendations

Generally/typically for this type of interior part, the exact method of replacement may vary depending on the specific design of the seat and the car’s equipment. Before the actual assembly, it is therefore advisable to carefully compare the new part with the dismantled piece.

1) Before assembly

• Check whether the shape, attachment, cut-outs and design of the cap match the old part.
• Compare whether the part is intended for appropriate use in the driver or passenger seat according to the original piece.
• Check the condition of the latches, guide parts and viewing surface so that it fits correctly and does not cause play after assembly.
• If the part is mounted near the seat heating controls, also check the condition of the surrounding plastics and controls.

2) Necessary tools and materials

• plastic crowbar for dismantling interior parts
• ordinary hand tools according to attachment type
• clean cloth
• gentle cleaning agent for plastics
• work gloves

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and prepare enough space to work around the seat.
2. Move the seat into such a position that there is the best possible access to the installation area.
3. Carefully remove the original cover or the surrounding plastic parts so as not to damage the latches and upholstery.
4. If there is dirt or dust in the area, clean the contact surfaces and the surrounding area of the attachment.
5. Compare the old and new part side by side, especially the shape, orientation and location of the attachment points.
6. In the case of a follow-on control, check that there is nothing blocking its free movement.
7. Place the cover in the correct position without using excessive force.
8. Gradually click or fasten it according to the type of design, always evenly over the entire surface.
9. Check the alignment with the surrounding parts of the interior and, if necessary, reseat the cover gently.
10. Reassemble any parts that had to be removed for access.
• 4) Post-assembly checks and function verification
  • Check that the cap is firmly in place and does not come loose anywhere.
  • Check that it connects to the surrounding plastics without significant gaps.
  • If it is related to the control of the seat heating, test the control for free operation and normal functionality according to the car equipment.
  • When moving the seat, watch to see if anything rubs or loosens.

  5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them

  • Exchanging part design – always compare the new part with the old one before assembly.
  • Damage to latches during disassembly – use a plastic pry bar and do not pry the part with force.
  • Incorrect fit – press the cap evenly, not just at one point.
  • Overlooking damage to surrounding parts – check the condition of adjacent plastics and control elements before assembly.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • normal wear from everyday use of the seat
  • frequent handling of the seat heating control
  • cracking or breaking of plastic latches during careless disassembly
  • mechanical damage to shoes, luggage or when cleaning the interior
  • plastic aging and loss of material elasticity
