'Wrinkled' rear seat

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Hey guys,

Has anyone ever seen this issue? The smaller section of my folding rear seats in my 182 are wrinkled. I checked it over and it doesn't look like the seat cover isn't on straight, really odd issue. Photos attached, ignore the stains - thats dog drool!
Interested if anyone has seen this / solved this in the past?

Thanks!

hairdryer and stretch it gently but don't have it too hot though

Un zip it and try a re arrange.

And/Or does anyone know if its possible to remove just this part of the rear seat? Or must the whole bench come out after unbolting it from the Isofix bar?

@DaveDreads @Brooky182 ja, I think I might try both your ideas at once..

Edit @DaveDreads any idea if its possible to remove just that section of the rear seats, so that its easier to get access to the zip and re-arrange the cover?

 

[Brooky182]

You can remove it. Two bolts in the middle of the seat but its a pain in the backside

 

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Nothings ever easy eh!
Thanks, I'll try to unzip + Hair dryer it first I guess without removing the seat

The rear seat back is all one piece sadly, it's not difficult to remove the whole thing as long as the bolts aren't rusty.

Right you are - just fiddled with it and found out I may just need to attempt to remove the whole rear bench.
What is really bothering me, is that I cannot actually locate the zip without removing the bench, it seems. Zip appears to be in the bottom left corner, but the zip is either tucked back into the fabric, or is hiding really really well. >:

Yeah it's not easy to find, it's hidden at the bottom corner under the seam.
