Rear seat removal
I need to remove my rear seats to clean, restore and leather treat them. Is this a pretty easy task? Any suggestions o a quick easy way to do it?
Thanks

Hey Mike,
Mine weren't that tough. Do you have the rear A/C? I think that will complicate things a lot. Otherwise, I just removed the center console, then the seat belt bolts, and the seats. I forget if the seat belts had to come out first or not, but it wasn't that complicated. Nothing holding the seats down though, they should just pull out.

Without AC:
Fold the seats forward to the flat position.
Remove the screws that hold the carpet from the back of the seats to the read deck.
Pull carpet forward to reveal hinge on the outer side of the seat with two allen bolts.
Pull lever and extend seat further forward (should be possible now with carpet freed)
Remove allen bolts from behind seat. I didn't have a hex socket, so I used a T-45 Torx and made short work of it.
Once those bolts are out, pull outer side of seat toward you and rotate inner out of the pocket on the center console, seats should come right out.
