DIY: Let's change the oddments tray in the rear seat.
My rear oddments tray became scuffed and I wanted to replace it. Here's how.
Step 1) Remove the rear seat. This is easy enough, just pull it toward the front of the car and slightly upward with gentle pressure and it will pop free. A good opportunity to vaccuum under the seat too. Step 2) Flip the seat over onto a flat surface. Carpet is ideal to protect the leather from marks. You will notice the three metal rods, the two end ones of which are attached to the oddments tray. Step 3) Unhook the section toward the rear of the car first, taking car to clear the four thin protrusions out of the way. It should unhook fairly easily without forcing anything. Step 4) Unhook the other end and push the tray through. Step 5) reattach the replacment tray following the reverse order above and reinstall the seat to the car. Step 6) Relax knowing your interior trim is once again looking fine and you can put your OCD daemons to rest. Until next time at least. |

I was searching for how to change rear seat tray on E82 1 series and found this but it says you have an F30 but it is in the 1addicts section so I'm confused. Is this an E82 rear seat?
Either way, thank you for posting this stuff! Guys like you that post this stuff to help others are the best part of these forums! |

FWIW,
A very soft Cotton buffing wheel and gentle pressure can bring dull plastic to a shine. You have to be very careful as to not build too much heat though. A satin finish would be more difficult and I'm not sure how to do that. |
