Hey all I just for a new to me 1992 FJ1200 ABS. The seat won't come off. I can put the steering in lock with the keys and pop the left lever down. The right is snapped and NOTHING is getting it to push down. I tried using a coat hanger and using all my 210 lb weight, wiggling the seat and key, tried pushing the right down first, left down first....it's stuck.

How can I get that seat off? Thanks!

Time go buy a new tool.

Slip the oscillating blade under the edge of the seat and cut the leg of the metal seat bracket.
