Try what Supergoose9 suggests. Avoid trying to remove the seat back. It isn't likely to be easy for you.

I've removed and opened up the seat back. Not Fun. A wire runs from the "knob", down and out and up to a lever on each side. When the "knob" is pulled the lever pushes against a protrusion that releases the latch. (The latch is similar to the ones on the doors which have a protrusion going into the door and is pushed by a lever.)

I use RayS's method. The small "teat" can be moved by finger, if you pull the seat back forward while pressing down on it. I've drilled a small hole in the "teat" through which I've looped fishing line and a pull ring. Ouch. But I guess that's what nipple rings are for.

I haven't tried RayS's suggestion "Engine 41 is now Squad 41 in the Bronx" (whatever that means).
