On those seat backs, when I reach up, I can only find about two screws. Since I have to reach down and around before up the back... I can only reach about 1/4 the way up

I wish I could help you more.ive never been in that model. The screws have to come from the back or along the bottom of the seats. Hopefully yt can help more. I used hull cleaner on my gel inside. Make sure you cover your speakers or remove them.

I wish I could help too. Owned this series for over 12 years and this is the last mystery for me. Would love to see those backs come off and how you do it.

Great pics so far. Thank you for documenting this!!

I may have some insight from jrcramer He had to get back there to access the bolts holding the arch down. He said it was no big deal reaching them and sent pics showing the bolts, but its hard to tell where they are taken from. He also took a video of it. Said there was one bolt that was a tad hard to reach but he removed a panel and got right to it.

I'll talk to him later today and see what he says.

Cool Yt....maybe some of the mystery will be revealed on getting back cushions removed. Mine are fine, but others may want to know how (short of being a little person crawling & around behind the shell) :)

There are screws along the back of the cushions which u probably found already but the pain in the but ones are along the top of the cushion. I will try my best to get some good pics within the next day to show you.
