I am always afraid the screw driver isn't on the clamp and I'm going to break something and have a huge mess.

Rear seat cushion or backrest
1. Remove the safety belt cover.
2. Remove the fasteners cover.
3. Remove the 2 nuts.
4. Lift up and remove cover from safety belt tower.
NOTE: There are retaining clips that must be released to remove the rear seat backrest.
NOTE: The rear seat backrest trim cover and foam pad is removed for clarity.
To locate the retaining clips, align a screwdriver with the inboard portion of the outboard LATCH attachment points. Be careful not to damage the seat trim covers. Make contact with the rounded portion of the backrest frame and work the screwdriver upward until the screwdriver clears the rounded portion of the backrest frame. At this point the screwdriver should be located at the access hole. Press down on the backrest slightly (this is crucial, otherwise the retaining clip may not release), press the screwdriver rearward to release the retaining clip, then lift the backrest upward. Repeat this process to release the other side of the backrest.
5. Pull some of the safety belt webbing out of the rear center safety belt retractor, slide the rear seat backrest out from the webbing and out of the vehicle.

You do have to open the clip. If yours comes out without pressing on them, they're broken. Check out the amplifier forum. There is a post by Arcuhtek that has some colored diagrams. Even with that, I fought mine for at least 45 minutes before I stumbled on what I needed to press. It's a little plastic tab that is pressed. I actually compressed it with my fingers last time I removed mine. I still have my seat out, if you need a pic. I probably couldn't get to it until tomorrow, however.

My question is, I tried to get a screwdriver down ther, but how can you get it there if the bottom seat part is down or up? or just cram it between and search?
