Default How to: del sol rear compartment and fuel pump removal [26 pics]

easy enough but I couldnt find a guide so I though Id make one

tools needed for compartments:
-standard size philips screw driver
-flat head screwdriver for prying
-piece of cloth
-optional 12mm socket for seats

tools needed for fuel pump:
-pliers
-10 and 17mm sockets



personal trunk removal



first take a seat out. Its not neaded but it will make it A LOT easier
its held in by 4 12mm bolts


next remove these 4 screw
theres 2 on each side in the same location


and 1 screw in the cup holder


pry it off with a flathead
I used the cloth so it doesnt scratch anything


disconnect the cigarette lighter


pull it off with the ebrake engaged


then roll down the back window and pry it off from the top
try to pry on both ends at the same time so it doesnt crack or anything


all off


then theres 2 screws holding on each speaker grill


disconnect the speakers
pull it off after


remove the 2 screws on the bottom of the bins, 1 on each side


and 2 in each bin
so 6 total holding the bins


pry it off
I started at the top and worked my way around to the bottom


some more prying


all gone





Fuel pump removal

remove the 4 screws holding the cover plate on


I cringed when I opened it up, soo much rust, hopefully yours isnt so bad
I had to chisel all the rust off then hammer a 10mm socket on the 6 main bolts, remove these


relieve the gas pressure from were you pump gas
nowuse a 17mm socket to take the banjo nut off, be CAREFUL not to lose the 2 copper gaskets
use a rag to collect any gas


disconnect the electrical connecter on the back left
and use a pair of pliers to remove the hose on the right


pull the pump out slowly, the filter might catch on the tank


looks cool


new walbro 255lph on and old fuel pump next to it for comparison


good idea to replace those 6 bolts



installation is the opposite of removal
