Removing seats from 560SL

1986 560SL - Removed 2 bolts on rear rails and single bolt on front rails.

Still won't budge. Am I missing something?

There’s a middle set of bolts (flat head screws I think) that I believe you can reach from the back if you are able to slide the seats forward.

You don't need to remove any other bolts. There are two hook shaped brackets. Just push the seat back a few inches and lift.
