You can have problems with the carpet getting in the way in the rear and becareful of the plastic clips which slide along the metal rail, you can buy new ones if you do break them but if careful you should not need to.

Is it the black cabriolet in the picture?
If it is there will be a runner, that is what the seat slides along when you move it backwards and forwards.
To tilt the seat back up there is a round handle on the side which you turn to tilt the seat back up or down..
I you push the seat all the way back you will see the nut and bolt at the front of the seat (near the floor in the middle) as that is the only thing stopping the seat going all the way back and then out of the car.
You can see the seat runners and the front center runner in this picture, Its from a Mk1 Scirocco but your will be the same.

It has the handle on the side to swing forward but no handle underneath to slide back or forward
