new seats

[CAMO]

has anyone attempted, or swapped the front seats on our vehicles, with sips system installed?
i'm looking for aliitle advice on the precautions of the sips going off accidentally when removing the seats?

I thought SIPS was just re-inforcement in the doors? - I'm probably wrong, but it's worth checking exactly what SIPS is!
(Bit of a pointless reply really!?)

yeh SIPS is extra reinforcement in the shell not bags in the seats

Do an internet search on Volvo SIPS there are a few articles out there which may assist. I think as with anything like this caution should be exercised and advice sought prior to removal.

Seats Now Changed. 4 Bolts Holding The Seat Down, Un-plug The Heater Wires Underneath The Seats, Taking Care Not To Bang The Side Of The Seat When Removing Old/ Installing New Front Seats. Bobs Your Uncle & Fanny's Your Antie.
However The Rear Seats Are Bleeding Ba****rds To Change With Chunks Of Flesh Missing Off My Hands To Proove, Plus They Are Very Heavy (rear Seat Backs). New Half Leather Seats Fitted And Looks Grand!
