Third row bench seat removal - ‘05 E350

I removed the first and second row bench seats from my ‘05 E350 by simply pulling the lever back which released the seats from the brackets. However on the third row the bench seat is right in front of the AC vent with not an inch of clearance. There’s no room to slide the seat back to free it from the brackets. How have you all removed this particular seat?

Can't really see what you're talking about in the picture but the manual says to release the catch, pull the seat rearward as far as you can then lift up on the rear of the seat. I have no experience with this new of a van, so if the plastic AC cover is in the way then you may have to remove the cover in order to get enough clearance. Sorry I couldn't be of more help but here's the manual if you want to take the time to read it.
