Seat Removal question

I was looking at removing my seats, and in the process of getting at the 5 bolts, I noticed that my passenger side seat moves in every direction EXCEPT back. Is there a way to manually move them? I don't see how I'm going to do this without being able to move the seat back. I guess I'm due to replace this seat...

if your seats wont go back, lift the seat all the way up and access the bolts with a open end or box end wrench i do not think there is a way to manual move the seats

Yes you can. From the front of the seat looking in the middle of each seat rail there is a 10mm bolt. It was easier to move it back then forward but it will move. Important to turn each side the same amount of turns or the seat will move unevenly and jam. There is a post that has pics, continue to search.

Yeah, got most of it worked out. One of the passenger side bolts is stubborn, and actually warped when I was using my open ended wrench to loosen it. I'm going to have to get a new game plan for this one.
