How do you fold down the rear seats of the Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini F56, F57, F54, F55 - Years 2014-2023
Part: Seat

In order to fold down the rear seats, you will need to access the trunk by lifting the rear hatch of the car: once the hatch is lifted, you will be able to locate the levers on the sides of the rear headrests. By pulling the lever on the right, you can fold down the right backrest, while pulling the lever on the left will allow you to fold down the left backrest along with the center one. In this way, the backrests can be folded down; to secure them again, simply lift the backrests and secure them to the respective pins.
