There is a vertical bolster between the back seat and the rear door that is part of the rear seat back rest. Grab hold of it from the top and pull forward sharply to remove it. Then look at the inner wheel arch where the bracket attaches to the inner arch. This area is so often rotten on these cars now and only start to show any issues on the outside once the rust has gone too far, as it is hiding behind the plastic wheel arch liner. If this area is rotting it is a bit of a pain to weld up properly. I have done this to two cars now, but won’t be doing any more.
