How do you open the back seat of a Honda Accord?

I’m moving to a new apartment tomorrow. I’m worried about how many trips I’ll need to take with my little Honda. I think I can make my life a lot easier by lowering the seats, but I don’t know how to. How should I go about opening the back seat of my Honda Accord?

the move
! Honda Accords may feel small, but you’ll have plenty of space once you get those back seats down. Follow these steps to open the back seat of your Honda Accord:
  • Start by entering your Honda through one of the back doors.
  • Locate the keyhole on the rear shelf—it should be in the center.
  • Put your car key in the lock and turn it.
  • If you have a single seat, you should be able to fold it down.
  • If you have split seats, you can turn the key to the left to fold the passenger’s seat and the right to fold the driver’s seat.
Hopefully, those steps will help you open the back seat of your Honda Accord! If you’re still having trouble, try checking your owner’s manual for further information.
