from memory when you slide the seat forward as far has it will go on one of the slides there will be a latch that will move and allow the seat to come out

Hope this helps

The latch is attached to the rails that the seats slide on, the front of the rail on the tunnel side if you slide the seat right forward and have a look at the side of the seat look down to the floor next to the tunnel you will see a flat bit off steel about 3cm long push it down and the seat will slide forward and off the rails.

I just went out and looked at my BAJA
