How do I remove rear seats from a Nissan Serena?

    I have a Japanese import 1999 2.5 diesel Nissan Serena (which I love, despite the contempt in which it´s held by real motorists;)). I believe it´s possible to remove the rear and middle row seats - does anyone have any experience of this, before I attempt it and break something? Ta in advance.

    :DLOL! It´s a thought.

    I need to take them out for complicated parenting reasons. 3 kids. On long journeys, I need the huge boot space afforded by removing the rear bench seat. But the middle row is two big seats, and 3 into 2 doesn´t go. So what I want to do is take ´em all out, and put the rear 3-person bench seat in the middle, and the two middle seats in the back and.....is anyone still awake?

    It shouldnt be too hard to lift em out... IIRC they're almost like benches in a minibus? They should just lift out once the bolts are undone in that case. The only problem I can see is the seatbelts, but I cant remember if they're built into the seats in a Serena.

    Its a been a while since got that close to one (except the one that cut me up on the rosslare roundabout at the weekend).

    Many thanks, Drummerboy! (I swear that wasn´t me in Rosslare, I was nowhere near the place!;))
    I´ve located the four bolts that seem to attach the rear seat to the runners...each runner has two, one front and one back. They´re concealed under plastic screw-on covers. The bolts are very tight, though, and a bit awkward to get at, so I couldn´t undo them with the tools I have. I need to get a ratchet-thingy.
