How does the rear seat recline on a Priora?
The rear seats on the Lada Priora hatchback car fold down, thereby forming a huge space in the trunk.
But for some, even this space is not enough to transfer a certain load, so sometimes you have to completely remove them and take them out of the cabin. True, this method of increasing free space is very rarely resorted to. Also, seats have to be removed for the banal reason of replacing them with new ones or for dry cleaning purposes. In any case, to complete this procedure, you will need no more than 10 minutes of time and a tool, the list of which is given below.
- Socket heads for 10 and 13 mm
- Extension
- Ratchets or cranks
Tip 4: How to remove roof trim in Priora
Fans of the Lada Priora like everything about the car, but they also notice that the car’s ceiling lining is rapidly wearing out. In order to update the ceiling by covering it with a different covering, you must first remove the dilapidated roof. But how to do that?
You will need
- -screwdriver;
- -wrench.
Removing and installing the rear row of seats on Priora hatchback 2172
So, the first step is to remove the lower part of the seat, since it is the easiest to dismantle. To do this, use a flat-head screwdriver or use your hand to pry up the canopy cover, as shown in the photo below:
And in the recess we unscrew the nut using a 10 mm socket:
Now the canopy is moved to the side, because nothing else holds it.
We perform the same procedure with the second half. Then, by pulling the special belt in the back of the seat, on both one side and the other, we lift them and remove them from the passenger compartment.
As for the back, everything is also quite simple to do here. First of all, we recline the backrest, lifting the clamps next to the headrests, and from the inside we see several fastening nuts, both on one side and on the other. We unscrew them with a key number 13.
To show everything more clearly, below is another photo.
Also, on the back side there are still nuts that need to be unscrewed:
On the other side we do the same. After which you can begin removing the seats from the Priora. Once again, it is worth noting that the fastenings on the sedan will be different, so this procedure will have to be considered in the following articles. Installation occurs in reverse order.
Friends! Can you please tell me whether the rear seat backrest folds down on all Prior sedans? Maybe it depends on the configuration or something else? Where do you need to press or what do you pull to make it fold? Thank you in advance!

yeah, only these ropes tend to fall to the bottom and have to be pulled out of the trunk with a screwdriver. They really couldn’t come up with anything more serious.
yes yes, they wrote about it. Apparently I didn't have enough imagination =)
To be honest, it’s better not to touch the backrest unless absolutely necessary, the rear backrest locks are made of such rubbish that after opening the closures a few times they will stop latching…

I'll keep that in mind, thanks!
If the straps fall, then pass a thin wire into the trunk and hook it to the straps there. Pull them into the cabin and open it. But it doesn’t fold up, it can be removed (the back) You’ll shoot it when you fold back the 2 buttons of the trim and see 2 hooks at the bottom
Thank you! I'll keep it on mind. but I would like to hope that they still didn’t fail =)
The only catch is that the trunk upholstery is riveted to the backrests.
This is how... it turns out that they will need to be “unriveted?” Are they holding tightly?
To be honest, I don’t even know, but I reclined the seats a couple of times and 3-4 rivets vomited out. I didn't try to fasten them back.
Are they reusable or not, these rivets? or just pulled it out and that’s it...
There is a rope behind the headrest that you pull and the backrest opens. When I wanted to remove my backs, to my surprise, I didn’t find them. I had to open them from the trunk with a screwdriver. The trick was that these straps just fell into the gap between the back of the seat and the rear parcel shelf.
We invite you! What will still be included in the list of useful information, you ask? Firstly, we will show you the main everyday things that a person should know about car seats, and specifically we will show you clearly how to remove the headrests from the seats, and similarly we will show how it is necessary to correctly fold out the rear seat of a car in order to transport large items oversized loads and a little more useful information will be given about the seats.
Note! Real seat adjustment is an integral part of any car, because when it comes to purchasing a new car, everyone is different and in order for each person to sit comfortably in the car, you need to adjust the seat specifically to it (We are talking about front seats), but remember once and for all, the seat It is recommended to adjust only when the car is stationary (applies only to the driver), since when adjusting the seat, for example by length, you can lose control of the car because if you incorrectly fix the seat on the car, in other words, the possibility that it will suddenly move backwards and thus you can lose control over the car, so be careful!
1) At the beginning, the conversation will be about how you can adjust the front seats on a car, so if you set a goal to adjust it, for example, in length (according to scientific longitudinal), you need to pull the locking lever upward with your hand as shown below in the photo and only after that use body movements to adjust the front seat because it is enough, alas, if you release the lever, move your body either forward or backward, and thus you will fix the seat and it will stand clearly in one place.
3.5) On the side of each of the front seats there is a handle that is made of a round shape, so thanks to this handle it is possible to adjust not the front seat itself, but only its back, for this purpose it is necessary to turn this handle in the appropriate direction and thereby achieve position that is comfortable for you.
Tip 2: How to remove seats
Drivers who occasionally transport large cargo in their cars often try to increase the interior space by removing the seats of both the second and first rows. Occasionally, seat dismantling is performed for other reasons. In any case, it would be useful for every motorist to know how to remove the seats by himself if such a need arises.
- In order to dismantle the seats, you will need the most primitive tools - a wrench, a socket wrench and 2 screwdrivers - a Phillips and a slotted one. You will spend no more than 15-20 minutes of your personal time dismantling one seat.
- To remove the seats of the first row, you need to open the cover (the easiest way to do this is to use a flat screwdriver, prying the cover from above). Under the cover you will see a bolt, the one that needs to be unscrewed and removed. Each seat is secured with four such bolts, therefore, after performing this operation four times, you will disconnect the seat from the base and be able to remove it.
- In some vehicles, the second row seats are slightly more difficult to remove than the first row seats. But they can also be dismantled without any special difficulties. First you need to unscrew the screws that hold the decorative plastic trims in place and remove the decor. After this, the rear part of the lining must be bent back, slightly moved to the left, and then moved forward and removed in one motion.
Front seats
The front seats can be removed regardless of the Priora body type, that is, the seats will be removed the same way on all types of cars.
In order to get started, you need to prepare the tool.
To remove the front seats of the Priora you will need:
- Ratchet;
- Torx head E10;
- Head for 10 and 13 mm;
After preparing the tool, you can begin to work.
Removal process
- Initially, you need to disconnect all wires connected to the seat, such as heated seats and the seat belt indicator. We find these connectors under the seat and disconnect them.
- Remove the springs pushing the seat forward numbered 1 and 2 by pulling them up from the plastic retainer.
- Next, use a 13 mm socket to unscrew the 4 nuts securing the front part of the seat.
- Then, using a torx E10 head, unscrew the 5 bolts securing the slide.
- We take out the seat through the front door of the car.
Installation is carried out in reverse order.
Heated seats
Heated seats are relevant for most Russian regions. Sitting on a frozen seat in winter is not always comfortable and safe for health. Many people neglect this option, believing that heating consumes a lot of energy.
In fact, the heating option uses the same amount of energy as the parking lights. The seat warms up quickly and then remains comfortable down to -30 °C outside the car. If you have a choice of options and you have not yet decided which seats can be installed on the VAZ 2114, it is better to install heated seats.
In the 2114 model, the heating option is controlled by the on-board computer. If you independently connect the heating to the network, a short circuit may occur.
How to open the rear seats on a Priora
nik_bel72, I had a metal creaking in the place where the backrest clings to the body from below, I wrapped this place with electrical tape, the sound disappeared, then it appeared again, there was already a problem in the shelf: the body plays on bumps and the shelf creaks, I screwed it in with self-tapping screws, now it’s quiet
Same symptoms. The creaking at the bottom of the backrest disappeared after removal, now it creaks in the area of the shelf on large bumps. We will treat...
There are 2 options: 1, try to snap it firmly or press harder; 2 cut a little splen around the fastening.
I also glued it with 8mm splenium, everything turned out fine for me, just like my own :)
and tried this way and that: on one side it closes, but on the other it doesn’t work. I'm already stuttering)))) what other options??
Hm. Does your seat not reach the mount or does it not fit into it? Is the seat screwed down well and level? Alternatively, look at the lock on the seat.
Has anyone ever had this happen? The ribbon has come off and you have to pull it so that the hook will come off :))) How can I recline the seat now?
Try unscrewing the two front hinges under the seat (they are covered with plastic covers). Approach the nuts on the side with a 10mm wrench. Unscrew it, lift the seat, and then reach the hook.
It didn’t come off for me, but it happened that I fastened the back and there was a ribbon inside)) well, nothing came out of the trunk, something like an electrode, only a thin one (the knitting needle was opened))
You can try this too.
Then it is not a “loop”, but a handle for the back lock. If the T-shaped plastic handle is not lost, then it is put in place and secured through the hole with a new cotter pin or piece of wire. I've already had this happen. If it is lost, then you buy a new one in the store, complete. I think if you look in stores, you will find it.
Which seats fit on a Priora without modifications?
Anyone who has installed a seat from a foreign car, please share your experience
Comments 44
They offer me seats from the Accord 7. Do you think it will be difficult to install them in a Priora?
I don’t know myself from the BMW 735 in the E32 body
one of these days I’ll install a Subaru B4 for myself... while I’m preparing a neat frame for them...
From Lancer 9 2.0 to Priora we got up with some difficulties! but the impression is great
from Nissan Almera, BZ) everything is bolted and to the original fasteners) all functions are height adjustment, lumbar support, normal working slides, heating)
From paper 530 xi 2008. You buy adapters for the unp bride bucket and a similar plate on top because the bucket ones are narrower... and screw it on stupidly. I got by with 1500 without a collective farm. You can do it like this for any type of seat
The standard seats of Lada cars may not be entirely comfortable. Some people lack more developed lateral support, others want height adjustment or adjustable lumbar support. All the shortcomings can be solved in one way - installing alternative seats, for example, from a foreign car.
The front seats themselves are different for Granta and Kalina (first or second generation), but the fastenings are similar. Distance between skid mounting bolts:
- width - 450 mm;
- length - 340 mm;
- diagonally 560 mm.
Luxury trim levels have similar seat mountings, which now have height adjustment. Seats from Lada Granta Sport, Kalina Sport or Kalina Cross are also perfect. The seats of sports versions of cars are more rigid (the seating position will be higher) and have little lateral support.
If you decide to choose seats from a foreign car, then pay attention to two things:
- Overall dimensions of the seats. They should not only fit in the cabin, but also be adjustable in all positions;
- The width of the slide (the distance between the fastening bolts). If the width of the seat slides of a foreign car is 45 cm, then it becomes possible to install them on a Grant or Kalina without alterations (with minimal modifications).
We analyzed reviews from owners on the Internet and compiled a list of “which seats are suitable for Granta or Kalina without modifications” (where the seat mounts for foreign cars have a similar width of the slide). The table is updated as new information becomes available:
Automobile model | Note |
Mazda 6 (2008 onwards) | Width 450 mm. Lumbar support, seat lift up/down, larger pillow under the knees ( source ). |
Kia Rio | The slides are not symmetrical; the seats move inside the cabin by 1-2 cm. |
Hyundai Solaris | The slides are not symmetrical; the seats move inside the cabin by 1-2 cm. |
Skoda Fabia | Width 450 mm |
Chevrolet Lacetti | Width 450 mm |
Hyundai Tucson | Width 450 mm |
Honda CRV | Width 450 mm |
Opel Vectra C | Width 450 mm |
Renault Megane | Width 450 mm |
Nissan Qashqai | Width 450 mm |
Mazda CX-5 | Width 450 mm |
Volvo V40 | No fastening measurements were taken |
Skoda Octavia | No fastening measurements were taken |
Peugeot 308 | No fastening measurements were taken |
Toyota Camry | No fastening measurements were taken |
Opel Astra H | The width at the edges of the slide is 455 mm, in order to tighten the bolts you will have to cut off the edges of the slide |
All that needs to be modified is to saw off the excess parts of the foreign car's seat slide and drill new holes for the fastening bolts. The tools you need to have are a grinder, a drill, a hammer and a file. An example of a simple installation of seats from Hyundai Solaris/Kia Rio on Kalina:
If the width of the seat slide of a foreign car is more or less than 450 mm, then to install them you will have to make an adapter/plate and may require removing metal parts of the floor. Welding and other additional tools may also be required. An example of installing seats from a Mazda 3 on a Kalina:
Thus, before purchasing seats from a foreign car, make sure that the width of the slide exactly matches the standard one, and that the seats themselves can easily be placed according to their dimensions in the cabin of a Grant or Kalina, taking into account all the adjustments.

Necessary tool for replacing seat upholstery on Lada Priora
To reupholster the rear and front seats on a Priora, you will need the following tool:
- Pliers or side cutters (or a pair of pliers).
- Crosshead screwdriver.
- Awl.
- Nylon ties 2.5×150, or 3.6×150.
The new upholstery was from, a more classic pattern, the fabric itself is pleasant to the touch, and the seams are even and do not tear. If your style is business, then you can choose “Skif”, although it will be more expensive.
Naturally, you need to change the upholstery on all seats, but if you are going to reupholster it for the first time, we recommend starting with the back row, it will be easier with it than with the front ones.
Tuning
Modifications to the rear seat of the VAZ 2110 are not that common. In this case, these structural elements are most often heated. This is quite easy to do. It turns out that such a modification is not too expensive in terms of money. And it becomes much more comfortable for passengers to travel. This thing will seem especially useful to drivers with large families living in the northern regions of the country.
For installation, you can use a commercially available heating kit - “Emelya”. You can also use a heater removed from another car. This element from Priora is best suited. The heating should have two parts (for the seat and backrest). To install, it is not necessary to completely remove the seats; partial dismantling is sufficient.
Heating is installed under the casing. The connection is made in the same way as on the front ones. The power buttons are located on the rear doors. It is best to display the power indicators on the dashboard. This will allow you to control the operation of the device. You also need to monitor the position of the device. It should not touch the seat springs.
. For various reasons, any driver has to deal with the need to remove seats. Therefore, it is important to know how to remove the rear seats on a VAZ 2110 and 2112. This will make your task much easier. Like any seat assembly, they can break; this happens rarely, but it does happen. You can always fix the problem yourself.
How to remove the rear seats on a VAZ 2110 and 2112? When you really need it
Before removing the rear seats on the VAZ 2110 and 2112, check all the nuances of this work. This is not difficult to do, but it has its own peculiarities. Although this model is the progenitor of several models, from 2111 to Lada Priora, it still differs from its brothers in some elements. True, not too much. At one time, the Ten was positioned as a completely modern car. For the first time, a carburetor with automatic choke and many other new products were used on domestic cars. How to remove the rear seats on a VAZ 2110 and 2112 is a question often asked by the owners of this car. The design of the seats and their fastenings is as simple as possible, but at the same time reliable. This allows you to remove the seats at the right time. At one time, entrepreneurs who used the car for work pulled out the seats when they needed to travel for goods. After which they were easily and quickly put back.
Seats from which foreign cars can be viewed for the Tens?
What seats are suitable for the VAZ 2110? You can install almost all seats from cars of a similar size. This could be a B or C class car, which is famous for its comfort. Thanks to the abundance of disassemblies, buying used chairs will not be a problem. All that remains is to choose the chair model directly. For such a selection, it is worth focusing on already successfully completed projects, which car owners are happy to brag about in in-flight magazines. Here are just some popular examples:
- BMW E60. The seats in these models of Bavarian cars were mostly leather, and also equipped with an electric drive and other additions that the car owner would obviously like.
- Hyundai i40 or Hyundai i30. The seats are very comfortable and well thought out, and the ones from the i30 are preferable, as they leave more space in the cabin. The appearance is good and the side supports also work very well.
- Skoda Octavia A5. The seats are very comfortable and compact, there are the necessary adjustments, and well-defined lumbar support. The quality of the upholstery in this model is also pleasing, so you will definitely be satisfied with these chairs.
- Ford Focus. The alterations will be quite complex, but nevertheless, you will get excellent results. Especially if you can find seats from more expensive trim levels of this car, they are very comfortable and beautiful.
- Recaro. Many sports style lovers would like to see Recaro seats in their car. The easiest way is to find Opel proposals, but there are also solutions from other models; altering them will not be difficult even with your own hands.
This list goes on with most compact models from Volkswagen, Mercedes and other brands. There are a lot of interesting ideas on the market. But before buying chairs, you should find out if anyone has performed such an operation on their Ten before you. This can be found on the Internet, since most owners will definitely boast about such a change. However, you can try something new by posting your experience on the Internet to help others.
How to reupholster the rear and front seats of Priora
The first thing you need to do is disassemble the back row, then put it in a place convenient for you, maybe right in the middle of the room. The whole procedure consists of straightening the metal rings, rearranging the knitting needles and stretching the new upholstery using not rings, but ties.
- The old upholstery is attached to the body using steel rings; we unbend them. If you try to snack on them, it will be a rather labor-intensive task. Therefore, simply use side cutters to twist the ring clockwise, and it will come off. If that doesn't work, use pliers.
- To give the upholstery a shape, it is attached using a knitting needle with rings to a knitting needle in foam casting, and we also unbend them.
- We remove the old upholstery, take out the knitting needles and insert them into the new one.
- Using a screwdriver or an awl, we make holes in the upholstery along the spokes and connect the holes made with a tie to the spokes in the foam casting. Instead of steel rings, it is better to use ties; the work then becomes much easier. And in terms of strength it is no worse than rings.
- We tighten the ties evenly, bite the edges and remove the locks inside so that they do not stick out from the upholstery. When tightening the clamps, watch the tension; when tightening, folds will appear that cannot be removed.
- We also make holes along the contour of the upholstery and connect it to the body with clamps.
With the backs everything is absolutely the same. The only thing I would like to talk about is the removal of the headrest clamps. There is no information on how to remove them on the Internet at all. To remove them you need to press on one of the tabs with a screwdriver and pull it up. Quite difficult to remove.
Priora armrest and headrest reupholstery
Armrest . There shouldn’t be any special problems here, the upholstery is simply attached with Velcro. Don't forget to make holes for further fastening.
Headrests . We unscrew the protective cover, pry up the upholstery and remove it from the hooks. We insert the knitting needles from the old upholstery into the new one, stretch it and hook it onto the hooks. Screw the cover back on.
The spokes in the headrest are of different lengths, do not mix them up.

Installation of standard seat heating on LADA Priora
The standard seat heating kit for Priora should include:
- Heating elements (4 in total, two for each seat);
- Block for the control unit with wires;
- Priora seat heating unit.
At the same time, the article number for heated seats for the Lada Priora must contain the numbers 2170 - this, as any Priora owner knows, is the model number. It is worth distinguishing the standard heating kit for Priora 2 by catalog number - in comparison with the kit for Priora 1, they are different. The entire installation of seat heating on Priora is best described with a detailed step-by-step algorithm, which has been tested by time and other car enthusiasts:
- We remove the front seats. Remove the factory covers from the seats, which are secured with a metal spoke and three plastic latches. You can disassemble the seats without dismantling them, removing only the covers, but then the process will become a little more complicated - it will be inconvenient to deal with wiring and laying out heating elements;
- We attach heating elements to the seats - one on the lower part, the second on the backs, in the lumbar area. Some people recommend attaching it with double-sided tape, but over time it can come off. It would be safer to sew the heating element to the pillow so that it does not move out of its place;
- Pull the wires from the heating elements through the hole in the mount under the pillow (run the wires from the lumbar heating elements to the place where the seat upholstery is attached). The piece of wire that passes through the hole can be protected from chafing using some kind of plastic tube. The power plugs for all four elements are out, all that remains is to connect them;
- Disassemble the central tunnel. Buttons for heated seats will be in place of the plug near the handbrake;
- The wiring is connected strictly according to the connection diagram for heated seats. Before doing this, it is recommended to disconnect the battery from the network. We install a terminal block to the heating control unit. The (-) black wire is attached under the bolt near the handbrake. A gray-red wire (for aesthetes, it is responsible for illuminating the buttons) is connected to the lighting of the cigarette lighter rim. The red 12V wire is pulled to the mounting block. You can't do without a fuse here. Then everything goes strictly “by the numbers”. Connect pin 87 to the red wire, pin 86 to the black wire. Connect the blue-black 12 V wire to pin 85, the pink wire to pin 30. You can connect to the mounting block via cut-in clamps to hold the wires tighter;
- Reassemble the tunnel and install covers on the seats.
The standard seat heating on Priora is guaranteed to last for several seasons if it is connected correctly. And if immediately after installation the heating does not work, it means the wiring connection was incorrect.

For any support for the development of the channel. Immensely grateful! Repair and...
Now the canopy is tilting to the side because it is no longer holding anything.
The same procedure is performed with the second half. After this, pull the special belt at the back of the seat
, both on one side and the other, lift them up and pull them out of the cab.
As for the back, everything here is also done quite simply. The first thing we do is tilt the backrest, lift the locks next to the headrests, and on the inside we see the fixation of several nuts, both on the side and on the other. We unscrew them with a key of 13.
To show more clearly, another photo will be given below.
In addition, there are also nuts on the back that need to be removed:
On the other side
, we do the same. You can then start removing the seats from the Priora. Again, it's worth noting that the mounts will vary on your sedan, so consider this procedure. Installation is performed in reverse order.
Installation of torsion bars for the front seats of Priora
We place the taller plastic bracket (No. 1) closer to the threshold, and the less tall one (No. 5) to the floor tunnel. In this case, the hooks (No. 2) of the brackets should be directed towards the front of the car. We insert the short end of the torsion bar (No. 3) into the hole in the bracket (No. 5) and insert the torsion bar (No. 3) into the hook (No. 2) of the bracket (No. 1). Then use a mounting spatula or a powerful screwdriver to place the long end of the torsion bar (No. 3) behind the hook (No. 6) of the pillow base post. We install the torsion bar (No. 4) in the same way. The long ends of the torsion bars should be directed towards the front of the car.
