Default how to remove rear seats?

anyone know how/have instructions(with pictures possibly) on how to remove the rear seat? planning to run wires for an amp + sub. this link shows how but describes very little on removal of the rear seats:

was wondering if it was anything like the 2GS, where you pull the bottom of your seat(where you sit on) up, then pull out the velcro on the seat cushion for your back revealing a couple of nuts, then simply pull the seat forward and out

all you have to do is pull up in the bottom part of the seat and youll expose 2 screws. One on each side holding the bottom portion down. Unscrew those and then just pull the rest out cause they are held in by clips. Next just unscrew where the seat belts are held in and then holding the bottom half of the back rest just lift up and out. The back portion is held on my like an upside down hook. Let me know if you get stuck. Thanks.

Default 07 IS250 rear seat removal

its a little bit different on the 07 IS250.

1. pull up on the seat bottom on the right and left hand side and it pops up. its held in by 2 U shaped iron bars with plastic clips.
2. slide the bottom of the seat forward and remove
3. there are 4 i think black 12mm bolts holding down the back of the seat that need to be unscrewed.
4. as wierdazndu said, there are silver bolts holding down the seat belts you need to remove as well, from there you can lift up and remove the back of the seat as directed.

i did this today to get to the rear panel of the car to install the lux package rear window shade. pictures will come up when i get a chance to get them off my phone.
