Hi
forum member richthom requested "Front Seat Recline Motor Removal & Installation information" for 1999 XJ8.

I created these 3 PDF files:

Front Seat Recline Motor Removal & Install
1999 XJ8 Front Seat Recline Motor R&I .pdf

Front Seat Removal & Install
1999 XJ8 Front Seat R&I.pdf

Front Seat Backrest Trim Panel Removal & Install
1999 XJ8 Front Seat Backrest Trim Panel.pdf

The 1st PDF makes refers to "Remove front seat and position for access <<76.70.01>>. and
then " Remove front seat back finisher. Refer to 76.70.09 ??? - it is actually 76.70.03

Also in step # 8 the 1st PDF says:
8. Using a suitable soft drift, release drive shaft from gearbox and potentiometer.

The is a photo of a brass soft drift punch set of tools:



Hope this helps
