I have found and removed the 11 bolts but can't get to the 12th bolt due to a plastic cover down by the lever that folds the back seat down flat on driver side. I have removed a screw from the back on the plastic cover but the cover still holds on tight. I cant find anything online to help me or show me how to take this cover off. Please help so I don't break it. Thank you. 2021 Dodge MEGA CAB 3500 Bighorn with a 60/40 reclining rear seats.

Thanks for using 2CarPros.

I am attaching the info below from the manual as this info will not be published yet on the internet sites as the OEMs do not have to publish current model year info. They have a certain amount of time to get that info out so that the other manuals and sites can show it.

Please run through this info and let us know if you have other questions.

Thanks

Well, unfortunately this show the back seat already out of the vehicle. I am trying to get the back seat out of the vehicle. I still cannot figure out how to get the plastic cover off to get to the last bolt holding down the frame of the back seat on the driver side to the floor boards.

Understood. Unfortunately this is all the manual has and there is very little other info out there due to it being a brand new truck. I checked earlier models as this truck's cab and interior has not changed over the last 5 years but they are all the same.

However, I believe number 9 is the handle that you are talking about. I understand that this is showing it removed from the vehicle but it is still attached to the frame as it would be in the vehicle. If they would have taken these pictures in the vehicle then they would not be that clear at all because it is not that much room.

Maybe get a video of this so that we can get a better idea what you are dealing with and we can figure this out.

I actually have a 2021 2500 but it is not a Mega Cab so it is different.
