wagon 3rd row seat cushion removal

Anyone have the secret to removing the 3rd row seat cushion from the backing panel on the wagon. Looks like it needs to slide off or something.

thanks for that reply. However i'm looking to remove the cushion from the back panel. so the right most image, remove the cushion and leave the panel so that i can create some storage space.

want to repair the cupholder here, can't find much anywhere except people that weren't sure how to undo the clips- what did you find?
thanks!

The cushion is held via clips to the carpet panel... get your fingers between the cushion and panel, go around the perimeter pulling up to release. Takes a good yank to release.

Thanks! Was just a bit unsure of that maneuver as I saw one post were it appears the dude "pulled" the clips from the wrong end/broke them. Hopefully once I remove the panel it will be intuitive enough to figure out.

Just go around and slowly pull them up... I did it to "fix" the cupholder, but that "fix" was temporary. Only fix is replace it and it'll likely fail again the future, last I looked it was around $80 IIRC. I don't use the 3rd row, so not important at the moment.
