from what I can remember you remove the plastic trim (2 screws) on the back of the rails, get the big pins out (lever washer off. Replace them with bolts and nuts when you finish) take the seat off runners and out first (heavy bugger) then runners should slide out towards the back.

If you are hoping to fit 6 x 9s, you might have to screw them to the plastic trim. Sounds like a botch but can be done neatly and sounds the business. I chucked some domestic insulation material inside when I had the van apart too.

Just unbolt the seat and lift it out. Leave the runners in situ. Much easier. Prise off the cover on the legs, exposing the mounting bolts, and undo! See the fact sheet for a photo.

The panel can be prised off at the top and sides... the bottom isn't fixed so the runner won't be in the way.

There are about 5 clips at the top, and 3 or 4 on either end. At least there are on the older version.
