Default How the heck do i get my back seat bench out ... 5th gen accord

I'm changing my interior from brown to black and i need to take out the back seat.. but i cant for the life of me get the hooks outta the holes.. is there an easier way of handling this that i'm just not aware of? And while i'm posting do they even MAKE seats for a 5th gen honda in black. I couldnt find front black ones so i bought 2000 prelude black seats to put in.

you have to be gentle with them like there were your lady. easy them out. wiggle a little bit, and pop goes the weasel.

Just tilt towards front of the car and pull up and out. Pretty easy just try not to be to hard or they can snap from the seat if it's old enough

have you tried pushing down on the back seat to pop it off the hook?

There's a bolt, I think it's a size 12? But feel around the seatbeat buckles on the mid-right side. You need to stick your fingers down there to feel for it.

Look on the bottom of this post it has it: https://honda-tech.com/zero...age=1

If you have a sedan, the side bolsters have a 10mm bolt at the bottom of each side, and then you push upwards on them.

The back part is held in by two 10mm or 12mm bolts on either side.

The bottom cushion on a sedan I'm not sure, the coupe (which I imagine they're similar) has a 10/12mm bolt at the back in the middle and then two hooks, one on either side.
