Hello: I am working on the seat covers and want to remove the handle that allows the rear seat to move forward. There is a small hole on the side of it; however, no screw head or hex head is visible. I figured it was a press fit. Several good hard pulls did not result in a seperated handle/lever. Any clues from someone who has worked on these car about that lever/handle removal? Thank you in advance for your help. Regards, Trent in Los Angeles.
