Hey hatchback owners - I have a 92lx hatch. Just had the seats reupholstered. Now they are back in the car, trying to figure out if the latch mechanism on the back of the backseats ever actually did anything? Seems to do nothing now, not sure if i reassembled something wrong? See pic of latch
Hope these pictures help you also with 5L5s..... when the seat is pushed or pulled back hard, it locks in place on its own... to unlatch and fold the seat down you need to pull the top lever up with your fingers which then pulls the little latch up at the bottom (underneath the one your pulling up) . That little latch is locking to the bracket against the back piece so when that little piece moves up it unlatches.. it’s all about making that little latch go up and down..hope the pictures along with 5L5s help you.
