Rear seat Removal

[Sleeper-6]

I have found th source of the water leak that has managed to soak the padding under the rear seat. It looks like it's comming from the rear window frame about 3 inches up from the bottom on the passenger side. It seems like the factory seam sealer dried out and cracked, letting water in behind it. My plan of attack is to POR-15 all the rust I can find then re-seal the seams. the only thing in my way is the back section of the rear seat. The bottom came out easy. How does the back come out? Thanks.

I believe the bottom of the back seat is held by the bolts that hold the seat belts.

Once the bolts are removed, push up to relase the hooks near the top of the backseat.

also, i just had to take out my backseat recently and i used a size 45 torx bit on the seat bolts. they were in so tight it bent the end of the bit and broke the insides of the ratchet b/c now when i try to tighten things with it it slips.

Thanks for the quick answer! It was pretty easy to see that if I would have only opened my eyes and looked . Anyway, that what I used too, But I think that the T-47 sittng right next to the T-45 in the parts store would have been the right choice. The 45 seemed a little sloppy, but it still worked. Thanks again!
