I don't actually own a Sienna but just rented one and was very frustrated with the lack of answers out there on how to take out the middle seats. I ended up just working with it and figuring it out and wanted to share this with you to save you a little time........... The trick is to start by moving the seats as far back as possible by pulling up on the black bar on the front of the seat and then pushing back -- works well by sitting in the seat, reaching down between your feet to pull the bar up, and then pushing back. Then the process depends on whether or not you are removing one of the outside seats or the middle seat (in models that have a middle seat). For one of the outside seats pull up on the handle on the side of the seat that makes the back fold down but don't stop with just the back........keep the motion going and rotate the entire seating unit forward. If it doesn't work the first time (i.e. the back folds down but the seat doesn't rotate), lift the seat back up again and start the motion over. It sometimes takes a little help to keep the motion going. Then look for a black bar near the floor that has a little strap attached to it. Pull this bar up toward the ceiling and rock the seat back & forth until the latches separate from their connections to the floor. For the middle seat (again, after moving it as far back as possible), start by sitting in the far back middle seat and look down under the middle seat in the middle row for a red lever. Pull the lever up which will rotate the seat forward then repeat the process above of pulling up the black bar with the little strap attached. When completing the final step for either seat (the one where you pull up the black bar) there is an extra strap enclosed in the back of each seat that you can attach for extra leverage.

How do you replace your seat belt on a 99 Ford Explorer?

'96 Explorer Seat Belt Replacementhttp://www.seatcoverset.com/seatcovers-car_seat_cover.htmIn order to replace the driver side seat belt on a '96 Explorer, you must completely remove the drivers seat. Removing driver side seat belt: Use a 10mm socket/wrench to remove the two bolts securing the front of the seat to the floor. Move the seat as close to the steering wheel as possible to expose the rear of the sliding seat rails. Pop off the two covers at the end of each rail to expose two more 10mm bolts securing the seat to the floor. Next, remove the plastic cover with a Torx symbol on it at the rear of the seat belt guide rail. Removing the aforementioned cover will allow access to a large Torx bolt just below the rear of the center console. Remove this large Torx bolt, unplug any electrical wires below the seat, and remove the entire seat from the Explorer. With the seat out, you can use the same Torx wrench to unscrew the seat belt itself from the seat. Reassembly is the opposite of disassembly.


How do i remove the seat on a 1981 Yamaha virago?

Sometimes I have found a couple Virago's where the Seat ISN'T held down by bolts at all but a latch kinda like a latch to a cars hood. Remove the Left side cover. In the Middle of the seat, where the rider and passenger point is; there is two metal pieces protruding downward. Feel for the one in the back. Push it forward. This latch is attached to a rod that goes to the other side so by rotating the left side it also unlatches the right side. I hope this helps someone else!
