To remove the runners you will have to first unbolt and remove the seat, then lift the carpet a bit untill you can get at the "rail" bolts...take some of the rear bolts out and the end stop bar...then slid out the runners....Simplezzz!!

Info links in the FAQ in the FAQ section at the top of the forum on removing seats etc - http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... =43&t=9562
You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.

Yes but it is not a simple quick job.......easy if you leave the runners in.
