accessing rear coilovers inside cabin to adjust damper settings?

Recommended Posts

Hey fellas, this one has been doing my head in for a few days now and i was wondering if anyone knew how i could access the rear coilovers to adjust the damper settings? Ive pulled the seat down, ive even pulled it out but it seems like its below the rear parcel shelf. How do i remember this? Ive tried on many occasions but i feel like im going to break a clip of somesort. It seems like its attached to something but it wont budge.

Thanks in advance,

Thought of this clip i saw a while ago after reading your post, rather than having to remove the seat everytime you want to adjust the shocks, just do what the pros at Litchfield have done.

BTW: If you cant be ****ed to watch the whole clip, fast forward to 2:55

hope that helps a little

Off-topic LOL at that video. At 1:40 where he is testing the 0-60mph in 3.8 seconds.... he's going down a hill.

Are you referring to this bit which should lift up (with a little force) after removing the bolt?

Ahhh that would be easier to access the coilover aye. Instead of actually removing the parcel shelf. Was actually thinking of doing this but didnt know how it came out. Ill give this a shot in the morning! cheers DJ

Perfect DJ, accessed the coilover. But i didnt realise that the seatbelt component would prevent me putting in the damper key inside the coilover. How should i go about this? It seems its attached to the parcel shelf - would it be better if i removed it? Which brings me back to my original question, how do i go about removing the parcel shelf?
