I've read several posts and looked at the technical CD that states all you need to do is push down then lift up! I can't get my rear cushion out by this process. Any ideas or tricks!
Thanks in advance!

I recently pulled out my seat but I had broken the 2 clips that were in the front. $4 a piece. After breaking them I think you need to push on the tab with a srew driver then pull up. I would like to hear how other people do it since I am unsure if that way will work. And I also couldn't find anything on it in the CD either.

When i pulled mine out, I had to pull really hard. I think i actually stood inside the car and used my legs like i was doing a dead lift. Don't know if it was the porper way or not, but it worked lol.

Didn't have a problem with mine; it just popped out. Not sure if clips had been broken by previous owner. Seems to fit back in pretty snug, though.

agreed! It's a bee yatch to get it out sometimes...(that sounds nasty!)
I'd "stand" in the middle section, feet straddling the center hump. Grab both sides of the center of each rear cushion and pull up hard. It should snap up and there you go.

you need to push down and then back and then up... look at the hook and then figure it out
J for the hook and O for the latch or vise versa, it got to come off the hook so it can come up...

you need to push down, then towards the front a little to clear the brackets. Then lift up. 
contours, deloreans & fiats, oh my!

You have to separate at the buckle with a screwdriver.
Push seat cushion back and up should do it if your hands are at carpet level. If at top front edge then down, back and up should do it.
