Removal of third seat cushion on W124 wagon
 

would anyone know the proper proceedure for removing the 3dr seat cushions(back upright one) from a 1989 300te wagon?
problem is the two screws that hold the center latch in position are completely loose and the cushion has to be removed to place the screws back into the plastic latch.when the latch is pulled for raising the back rest to the vertical position you are left with the complete latch assy in your hand.
thanks in advance

The back of the middle seat?

3rd seat
 

no its the back of the rear,third seat.
thanks

Latches for both rear floor panels are constructed the same. Lafting the latch pulls a small pin inside toward front of car. Photo shows screwdriver for position, but you'll need something thin & flexible.
Mounting screws for pivot brackets are under the panel toward front of car.

i can get the seat all up and into position,problem is that the latch comes completely detached from the seat back,the screws are there but not holding anything,they backed out,i need the cushion off to screw the handle back on.
thanks
