If you want to know how to remove the rear side bolsters refer to my headliner removal DIY.
The bottom bench couldn't be easier to remove. Simply lift up and remove.

First remove the plastic cover on the middle hold down of the seats:

Pry it up and forward.

Now push each metal lever back to release the seat catch.

Then pull the seat out of the plastic hole on the other side.

The bolts take a 16mm socket.

Bump for Monday.

Hey this is really helpful. Thanks.

Is everyone's rear seatbelt anchor brackets in the orientation of the first pic?

Mine was not in that orientation when I first got in there, presumably b/c the dealer got to it first... Just want to confirm the orientation...

I believe that's the correct orientation, though I don't know if it would be harmful for them to be in another orientation. How was yours set up?

do you know how to take out the back seats for a sedan?

Thanks to the BMW engineers for thinking about us when designing this!
