Most rear seats in cars can be removed by examining the underside bottom, front lip area of the seat cushion at the front outer edges of the seat. There's usually a hook on either side of it's inner metal framing that engages a metal plate welded to the floor to keep it in place. You may have to feel around under the seat to find it. By pushing downwards and backwards on the seat cushion in those areas ....one side at a time..., you can usually disengage the hook from that plate and then lift the seat cushion up and out. Some cars have it bolted in place instead of a hook. The rear seat back cushion is usually bolted to the metal structure behind it...look for a bolt in either lower corner of the seat back...unscrew the bolts and then lift the seat back cushion forward at the bottom and push up to disengage it at the top.

pull up on the seat bottom to try to see between it and the carpet.



should be a white tab looking block on each side of the front of the lower seat bottom. you push on the button on it with a screwdriver and the seat should pull up (might have to pull while you push).



then the seat bottom should come up.
