Honda Accord Forum : “How to remove the back seat?”

it should jus pull right out. Did u try liftin up on the bottom of the seat? cuz the bench seat is not bolted down

Thanks Steve! Yes, i tried everything and it just won't come up that easy. I noticed it has three clips, one in the middle rear and one on each side on the front but there's no way i can see them to find out how to release them. I'm sorry for bothering with this but i just tried everything and i'll feel like a fool to bring the car to the shop for such a small thing like this. Thanks again!

o ur not bothering me man, i dont mind helpin ive been a car mechanic for 8yrs now. im surprised it doesnt lift up cuz i own a 2002 accord ex sedan n mine jus lifts up, and i used 2 own a 91 accord wagon n it was the same style, jus lift up. the only other thang i can think of is are there any little straps by the seat? cuz if there is youd have 2 pull on tha strap as ur lift up on the seat. otherwise take it 2 a bodyshop or sumbody that work on car stereo's cuz there used 2 takin back seats apart.

look on the back of bench seat, u might not b able 2 see it so jus run ur hands thru it n see if u feel a strap n there should b 2 of em if my memory is correct. its all cumin back 2 me

Thanks again Steve! The seat doesn't have any straps, they're more like clips holding onto the springs of the seat. I thought it was going to be as easy as many other cars and just lift up. Anyway, i guess you're right and i'd better get the car to the shop and have somebody to do it for me and while they're at it, clean underneath the seat which i think it really needs it.

The three clips you feel might be the secret. I have had several GM, Ford and two Honda's.  If you push in on the front of the seat it will release the three clips and then it should release the seat bottom.  As Steve has said, it will easily pull out from the back of the seat bottom once the clips are released.  My 87 Ford LTD, 84 Chevy Celebrity, 84 Chevy Cavalier, 00 Honda Accord, and 90 Cadillac Seville are/were all that way.
