My Ride: 2004 bmw 530 black on black
blacked out headlights and tail lights
i was hearing the squeaking sound from the rear
so i remove the seat, to put some foam in the rear parcel shelf
after i finished everything i put everything back,
i just have one problem now
the back part of the seat dont seem to wanna lock back in,
when i release the two catches on the underside of the parcel shelf nearest the seat-back by inserting a pointed screwdriver into the recess and pushing it
a small spring came out, i dont know if that springs need to go somewhere for the seat to lock
so anyone here now how i can fix this,
i pushed hard as i can many times to lock but it just not happening,
so i need help.

Hi there,
I can't figure out how to take the rear seat back rest out. Can you provide instructions and how to reassemble?
Many thanks!
