3rd Row Seat Back Removal - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

My wife had a bit of a spill in the back cargo area of our 08 Limited. Precisely, she spilled an entire gallon of hand soap. For reasons we wont discuss, both the weathertech liner AND the cargo area rug were at home in the garage...

I removed those panels / covers that I could get out easily to hose down but cant see a way to remove the back panel to the third row seat. I tried the water/shopvac solution but there's simply too much soap and it endlessly suds-up. Any thoughts on how to remove the rear panel of the seat back so I can remove it to hose off/out the soap?

Thanks,
Eric

Specifically which panel are you referring to? Pics would be great!

Have you tried this thread?

The car is w/ her at work today. The panel I'm talking about is the backing of the seat onto which the carpet is adhered. It appears to be made of Coroplast or some other corrugated plastic material. I can pry it off the back about 1/8 inch in places but dont want to get too agressive. I'll snap a pic upon her return.
