The seat base comes out with a sharp tug up and then a pull forward. Once you've got the seatpad out, you'll see a few bolts holding the back to the rear "bulkhead."

With mine, you just grab the lower front edge of the lower seat base, say with hands a metre apart..........and lift.
The seat is held in by clips in the base clasping the two tongues on the cross frame of the car..........no bolts. The rear Upper is held in with bolts at the bottom and in the back behind the head rests.

On the rear seat bottom, look under the lip on the front edge of the seat. Some verts have several screws that attach the seat bottom to the frame. Remove these screws and the seat bottom slides forward and comes out easily. To remove the rear seat back, remove the 2 17mm bolts at the bottom of the seat back and then look for two vertical slits in the plastic liner in the well where the convertible top goes. The two slits are behind the head rests. Inside the slits are 10mm bolts. Remove these 2 10mm bolts. Then remove the two seat belt plastic covers - one on each side. Then lift the seat back up and out of the car.

Mine's a 92 vert and the seat base just pulls up at the front, no bolts. Good tug needed though. AFAIK the later verts were like this.

Seat bases- three types as far as I can find 90 and later verts- snap fasteners that you pull straight up, then forward. It appears that the 88-89 cars used a hex head bolts that had to removed, and earlier used screws. All hatchbacks I have run across to date have the latch in the back on a pull tab, then forward and rotate.

tugged the bottom seat out, found the 2x10mm behind the slits, pulled the 2x17mm, the whole thing is out, and ready for new wiring, thanks everyone!
