Default Discovery 2nd row complete removal

Sorry if this is somewhere obvious, I'm in a big hurry. Santa has to pick up a large item 1.5 hours away and get home quickly. I need to remove my 2nd row completely. Is there any tricks or tips to getting them out.

From what I see, is removing the swivel bolt out. Its pretty tight in there too. I have to do quickly or my kids will know what I am up to.

If memory serves me...there are five bolts along the front edge of the seat frame assembly (two for small seat and three for larger seat), under carpet. Would be probably easier to borrow someone's truck.

It takes about 10 minutes to remove the seats, not very difficult. However, why not lay the seats down and drop some plastic over them?

Holy Crapola. The seat removal was no easy job....rusted star bolts, not having access the right tool and the right time...but done. Santa Sleigh is in operation. Well except for the usual disco plagues.
Got to do a head gasket job on a 100K 2000 Disco. Just turned 100K and changed oil and had traces of coolant in oil.....Fun. I am not a good wrench turner.

Thanks guys.
