Remove 3rd Row seats?

[marklbucla]

I was wondering if anyone has successfully removed the 3rd row seats from their 4th gen 4runner. If so, is there a forum reference for how to do it or any issues that may be encountered?

My search only shows results on the 5th generation.

If they're like a GX once you lower the seats from the hooks lift the left and right armrest covers up and push the big red button. That will release the 3rd row seat bar attachment, then just pick them up and put them in your garage etc.
