I found how-to posts on removing the front seats and folding portion of the rear seats. How about the seat cushion?

I need to removed them for re-upholstering. Any suggestion is appreciated!

Pull up on the front edge of the seat to release the two outside clips. You will then need to pull the back of the seat at each of the black covers for the child seat anchors. These plastic covers snap onto the anchors, but just pull on them quick and hard. Once those are released, you will have to push down at the back center of the seat to release it from a retention hook that you cannot see. Pull the seat forward while pushing down. That will help. That's it. Your seat should be out.
