Default Do middle seats lay completely flat with 7 seater?

I've been watching videos and they are all of the 5 seater, where the back seats have a loop to pull up and allow the middle seats to lay flat.

My middle row seats do not have that loop, so my middle seats do not lay flat.

Am I doing something wrong or are the 7 seater defenders built differently like that?

i have a 7 seater 110 and can confirm the second row does not lay flat.

the head rests in the second row also cannot be removed.

hope that helps!

Thanks I appreciate the confirmation - was really losing my mind watching all these YT videos of people doing it, then realized none of them were 7 seaters

thanks! mine do not lay that flat, maybe 2-3 inches at an upward angle a bit more. Did you do anything with the seat cushion part to make them go down that low?

Give them a good shove down and they lock into place.

The headrests in the second row can be removed. The front headrests can’t be removed.

any tips on removing the second row head rest? the button you normally push at the base doesnt work for me. again i have the 7 seater. i know the 5 seater foes allow them to be removed.

appreciate the help!
