how to remove the rear seat on 2006 toyota solara convertible

Rear seat removal is pretty much the same for most cars. Lift the front of the seat straight up. Once any clips have cleared pull the seat forward (toward the front of the vehicle) and lift it out. Having a convertible makes the job much easier.

Seat back removal can be a little tougher but usually involves loosening bolts at the lower end (hidden by the seat cushion) then lifting up and out.

Essentially you simply lift the rear cushion in front , then pull forward and remove the seat. The seat back is
secured by two bolts on the bottom that you'll see when you remove the bottom cushion. Remove the
headrests (2 bolts) and assorted clips.

The detailed further procedure is mentioned below:---
