I am so glad I asked how to remove the window handles. once I managed to get the butter knife to do the trick I had a chance to see those clips in up close. I had never seen anything like them and had I not asked I'd never have figured it out. Special kudos to Tim Bowers for the terrific illustrated post.

Now I am trying to remove the rear seat cushion. I have pushed pulled and tugged in all directions but I have a feeling it is a combination of moves to loosen the cushion. As usual I am wary of using extreme force for fear I'll damage something.
Can anyone here advise me of the trick?

Thank you,
Justin

Hey, Justin-

To remove the rear seat cushion, just push back on the front of the seat, then up. To install, push back, then down.

You probably want to push in on the bottom where you can feel the very heavy gage wire frame. Then pull up. The reinstall is now clear.
