Can't drop back seat down

thundercat · 9th March 2017, 10:23

Yep tried to drop down the back seat but it won't budge as the previous owner had pushed the release buttons down do far they have jammed. I have looked into the back of the seat from inside of the boot, but as there is a large metal plate going across, I can't figure out how I can get to the locking mechanism to free the catches off
