Can't get em down!
Soon, the handle has broken off to get my back seats down and I don't have an owners manual . The description I can find mentions getting in the boot (obvs after pulling the left hand level above the rear left lights) and pushing the seat belt forward from the boot and pressing tabs somewhere . Does anyone have really simple photos and steps as I am so stuck with it ! Supposed to be swapping out the seats in a couple of months !

On the back of the seat, (Cabriolet) there is a bar at the top off the seat running the width.
Pull the Seat latch release out left side of the boot hatch.
Rotate that bar/rod to release the fingers from the catch then push the seat forward.
You can do it from the boot or take the parcel shelf out.
If the strap at the top left side of the rear seat front is broken here is the fix.

Here's a good link to read through to find out about cabriolets in general.
The rear seat detail is on page 20.
