Do rear seats 960 sedan fold or not?

Hi all,
Does anyone know if the rear seats on the 960 sedan are able to fold forward or not? The manual says yes, just pull the lever up, but there is no lever. Or does this apply to the wagon only? My youngest just dropped a very small Lego part in the hole where the seat belts are attached to the floor pan and it would be so easy to flip these seats up and get the little part out. Scary what lives in there though, after having a look with a torch... All major food groups are represented!
Thanks for the help and best regards, Erik.

It doesn't seem as though they do, I just went through the PDF manual. Pretty much it's the same setup as the 740/760 from which it was derived. If there are steel rails crossing behind the rear seats it is very unlikely.

The rear seat does not fold forward but the seat squab can be removed very easily. I did this some time ago to put child restraints in.

Thanks Bill,

The seat came out very easily, scary what lurks under these seats after 20 years...

regards,

Erik

I found it harder to get the thing back in but I was recompensed by finding, among other items, a 50pence coin. It didn't buy much!
