How do you remove the rear seat of a Toyota Corolla? Let’s see how to take off the backrest and the seat base. Fold the backrest of the seat forward, then unscrew the securing screws from above the metal guides on the car's body (perform the same operation on the other half of the backrest).

Pull the two backrests out of the car's body. After removing the backrests, proceed to remove the seat bases: detach the base and slide it forward.

Install the new rear seats by mounting all the brackets and securing screws.
