For those who swapped there back seats, Did you guys swap the back seat locks that restrict access to the trunk? If so, how did you pull out the locking mechanisms in the back seats.

I was doing the swap and broke off one of the handles following the way Bentley says to do it.

Does anyone have an extra one they're lookin to hawk?
Appreciate the help!

check your key and see if it still works....

I swapped mine by bentley's method-
put the key in the lock turn it 90* and push the key away from the handle
make sure the seat is 75*F or so, (if it is cold the plastic will break)
