Taking Bench Seat Apart

I have to move this bench seat tomorrow in a small sized Honda station wagon...does anyone know how it comes apart? I need to remove the back from it so I can stack both pieces in the back of the wagon...the reason I can't check on it right now is because I have it stored in my storage unit a few towns over...I just want to be prepared when I go yo load it...TIA

Those black, plastic sections come off, and there are, IIRC, 4 bolts per side...

He could save himself a couple minutes and just unbolt the bottom, right? Leave those banana brackets connected to the top, which is shorter (back to front) anyway.

THose, IMP experience, were a total PITA...


Here's another option...

Unscrewing the tiny screw in the center, in the back, that holds the seat tether to the frame...Keeps the seat from leaning too far forwards....Or in his case, flat....No harm, no foul...

Of course you're right, haha. I'm thinking about older benches where there are 4 bolts. 1 on seat back, 1 on bottom. Looking better at the one he has the brackets come from in the upper upholstery to outside on the bottom.
