How do you remove rear seat for Toyota Sienna?

I tried for an hour to do this on my own before I gave up. So don't feel bad if you can't do this - I think the design leaves a lot to be desired. I ended up going to the dealer - and they had trouble too until the manager who had a Sienna came out and showed me.

This is what we did to make it as easy as possible

1. Remove the Headrest of the seat you are removing.

(Click release at base of headrest and pull up)

2. Move seat You are taking out all the way back

3. Move front seat all the way up

4. Use lever on side of seat to "Flip" seat up

5. Pull release strap (rear of seat you are taking out)

6. Lift seat out

** Note when putting the seat back in - put the small strip of rug

over the back tracks in the floor. The reason fo this is when you are

positioning the seat - it sometimes slips into the back tracks before

you get the front ones lined up and clicked in the front tracks. Man - this

is a PAIN when it happens. It gets stuck, cockeyed, and all messed up.

You have to go inside the seat to click two red buttons to release, and

it is a bear to do so..

Also, be sure to put the correct seat on the correct side. Yes, they do have sides as I found out the hard way. (Maybe on the leather seats only, but check all seats for the lever that folds them down, it should be on the side toward the door). Talk about PAIN. It's a real pain to take out a seat that is stuck because it's on the wrong side.

FOLLOW UP QUESTION:

Can you give details on the 2 red buttons used to release the back seats. I accidentally put the back side first and do not know how to release the seats.I would really appreciate a reply. Thank you.
