Hi guys,
Can anybody please provide some instructions for the rear parcel shelf removal on the Daimler DoubleSix series 3 (Vanden Plas)? It's a little bit different to the Jaguar so i'm wonder if the steps are the same for the both models because the Daimler has armrest what Jaguar doesn't have.
Thanks
Here's the phot of my Daimler:
And those are the photos what i have found here on the forum what it looks like from the Jaguar.
the rear seats need to be removed First, the rest will be obvious with seats out of the car.
the rear Seat belt Rewinders need to be removed too, The front plastic casing or winder-cover has a removable cover at the front so you can get to the bolt. Just be careful pulling it or it might break.
the two plastic "screws" left and right of Center, are removed by pressing them down as you turn them counterclockwise. The best tool to use is a wide flat-head screwdriver or even a flattened Coin like a Quarter coin. You will only lose $ .25 cents.
looks like speakers were mounted to the parcel shelf, so you need to pry the speaker covers off and then unscrew the speakers to remove them too.
Thats my parcel shelf, like Jose said, remove the seat belts and the seat, then thwre are a few large black plastic screws, not sure if they are easily gotten to as my glass was out so i didn't have to try to work in small.area!

Thank Jose.
Is it easy to get the rear seats out?
The previous owner monted a speakers to the parcel shelf. I want to keep the the look more original and take out the parcel shelf for replacing the upholstery.
Rostman, not sure of the Vanden Plas model bucket seats,
in the XJ-6, the seating section comes out first, there are screws at the front center below the seat.
then the Back sections have a screw at the bottom, remove those 2 screws then you pull the Back UP, then forward to unhook them from "U" brackets behind.
The Center armrest comes off last, it must be a separate section in the Vanden Plas.

1. I do have an older kinda smart Samsung. It has a camera. At times, I rember how to work it. I've never figured out how to down load from it. No e mail ap to send them to myself.
2. A bunch of older digital cameras. Each with down load limitations. Further complicated by this old Dell's quirks.
3. Smart card from Camera. Insert in a card reader. Only the older Dell on XP recognizes it!!! Save to computer does weird things there!!!
Even more ancient camera. Saves to "little" floppies. This old Dell has a drive. Win 10 doesn't recognize it???
