If anyone has removed theirs or knows how to, could you point me in the right direction or give me some quick instructions on how to do so? I'm trying to fix a creaking noise (metal on metal) from my rear seat and I think I found the right TSB to do so (http://www.infinitihelp.com/Ownershi.../ITB03-046.htm, but I need to remove the seat first....and they don't tell you how to do that. Thanks.

 

There are 2 small clips under the front edge of the rear seat. Pull lightly and they will release the seat. Tug towards the front of the car a bit, and the whole rear should come out.

Be careful, the clips are plastic and snap easily.

 

Thanks ChicagoX....wow, it's that simple, huh? Glad I asked.

 

after you pull the tab, lift up and pull out. I think it is easier to do one side at a time.

After you get the cushion released, push the seat belts buckles through the slots in the cushion. now, the lower cushion should be free to come out.

The seat back requires the use of a 14mm socket (i think). There are a several bolts to remove. all are on the bottom of the seat back. Also, there are a few in the back lower portion of the armrest. After those 14mm bolts are out the seat should come out.

(this description is for the "premium package" reclining rear seats)

 

Thanks QuadCam...I suspected there would be additional steps due to the reclining seats in the rear. The metal on metal creaking is by far the WORST noise I've had in my car....this had better be the TSB to fix it!!!!! Hope you have a squeak free interior (although that's probably hard to come by....unless of course you're sitting in your car waiting for the stoplight to turn green). Thanks again.
