You need to remove the bottom bench first which you can remove from the back seat underneath. Removing the back take off the headrests. Then you have to access a hook through the trunk by way of the spare wheel compartment. Once unhooked, it should come out.

There are two rearward facing hooks on the seat pan. Just hold the forward edge of the seat up a bit, place your hand near the rear corner(s) and shove down and back before you pull up.

I know this post is a few months old but I thought I would post this up for users that are looking for this answer more recently. I had been looking for information on how to remove the rear seats on my C300 and found little information when it came to detailed pictures or videos so I made my own:
