To lower the rear seats in a Toyota Yaris, Vios, or Belta (second generation), first check if the model has foldable seats. Some versions have fixed seats, so they cannot be lowered.

If the seats are foldable, locate the levers on the top of the backrest. To lower them, pull the lever upwards and push the backrest forward.

Repeat for the other side. To remount them, push the backrest backwards until you hear it click into place.

If a spring is damaged, the mechanism may not function correctly and require repair. This way, you will be able to increase the boot space.
