Sometimes this is a 2 person job. One person pushes the seat 
bottom from the back seat while the other watches the catch next 
to the tunnel. That second person has to depress the catch with a 
screwdriver at the right time to allow the seat to come all the way 
out. Keep the seat coming straight forward all the way until it is off 
BOTH runners or you'll bend the runners and break the expensive 
slides that cover them. You should check the runners for 
straightness with a straightedge before reinstalling or they won't 
work well.

Clean all the rust out of the groove in the seat and use lots of 
grease in there, any kind.
