Yes the seats on the xtr do come out quite easy once you get the knack.Once you have folded them in to the upright position,release the catch and tilt them back at an angle then pull up,they should come out one by one.Hope this helps.

Indeed they are quite fiddly the first time to remove once you have mastered the knack it's a simple job.
If you look through the forums you will find where others have modified the back with sleeping arrangements, which may give you some ideas

I have done ivecos and transits in the past but now disabled i want to go down the lazy way :lol:
