1 on the rear seats you need to remove the side cusins they just pop off then remove the clip securing the backrest mounting to the wheel arch by pressing it in at the bottom with a screwdriver and lifting it up with a secone screwdriver.
2 have a look at the rear shocks the nivos (self leveling) are alot thicker that ordanry shocks.
3 unsure
4 plug your seat belt in the clicking will stop

When you open the boot, where the catch is, to the right, in the carpet there is small peice of metal, you slide it one way or the other to enable the boot to be opened from the inside.

3. You could try removing the plastic from around the handle on the inside trim and that would give you access to the mechanism behind.

Just a thought

As for Shocks

Ordinary, with thin top

Nivomat, thicker top and rubber gator

Well, the belt is connected to the 'clicker' which sounds...you could just get a scrap seat belt end and plug that in which then closes the circuit and shuts up the tickers....or just remove the plug from the harness and then it doesn't know what you are doing lol

haven't got round to doing it myself yet, but according to the wiring diagram there should be a grey wire with black stripe going to the under seat plug, if you put this to an earth it should bypass the seatbelt buckle & fool it into thinking the seatbelt is always done up
