Rear Seat Won't Latch Down

Hi all,

As the title suggests, I folded my rear seats to carry some stuff, and now I've done, I can't get the 2 seat side to latch back onto the floor - hence I cannot pull the backrest upright.

Looking at the catches, (comparing to the 1 seat side that works) the "hook" is not in the right place to latch.
Don't think they have been used much, but I'm a little apprehensive about coating the lot in spray oil, to see if it frees up.

Any ideas ?, before I lose even more of my hair !!

Many thanks
Mark

Cheers mate,

Thought I might end up resorting to the old wd, but having ivory leather, I didn't want to spray oil if another known fix existed.

The oil did the trick.

All OK now.

10/10 for the scarey one !!
