Did a search but only found How-to's for hatches. I need to know how to remove the rear seat in an 89 Civic sedan. The key to unlock the backrest is missing.

 

You can go in the trunk and find a cloth strap to pull down on. That will release the back of the seat so you can push it forward. There is one bolt behind the middle of the lower part of the seat that scews down to the floor. Remove that and pull the back of the lower seat up. The front hooks of the lower seat come out when you have the back lifted all the way up.
