From memory pull forward and lift slightly. You can then access speaker and hi level brake lights to disconnect. Cable are short and be careful with speakers or you will pull the connection of the crappy cones.Step forward Newton and take a bow. It was indeed a PZ3. It was easy once I had the screwdriver at the correct angle (ie dead on but since it was recessed I couldn't see)

Apparently I should now be able to slide out the rear deck - half way at least
But while it seems loose it ain't budging at the moment...
Almost there!
One question though, while researching screwdriver sets, only to find I had a perfectly adequate one already, I came across the fact that they give you 2 PZ2 screw heads in a kit. Mine is no different. Why? Is it because that is the most popular size and you're likely to wear them out?

You dont actually need to undo the bottom seat cushions. The back tilts forward enough without needing to do it.I am being extremely brave (foolhardy) and attenpting to replace the rear woofer under the parcel shelf of my QP which I think I have blown (Well there's nothing but occasional fart)
I'm following the steps detailed here to get to the rear parcel shelf
2009 QP Seat removal? need help?

I've never done anything on a car except top up the window wash and changed a wheel once. My tool kit is aimed at home DIY....
I need advice on what tools to get to help me out. It's mainly the awkward location and no space to turn the traditional spanner
First problem nut. This is one of the two bolt holding the backrest . I only have a 13mm spanner which is chewing up the corners as I can't get in the same plane as the nut. I need a long thing to go in and then a handle. I can see what I need in my head ...!

Next problem are the bolts under the rear seat. How to get at them? Reading the instruction It's not clear to me if I actually need to undo these in order to tilt the rearseat forward

What tool set do I need and where's the best place to go for it?

Velcro pieces.Maserati really knocked themselves out with the stapled anti-squeak between the trim panels.
most often popped up rather then removed. The yellow clip acts as locking tab,.I did suspect that the yellow bit was causing a hinderence. So how is that removed?
