Stupid question but you did lift the Handle on the back of the seat?

yes! it looks like the seat belt has actually locked on the tensioner?

Hi. Similar thing happened with my Freelander. Got the old WD40 out, sprayed the mechanisms, two mins later sorted! Give it a try!

It will free up some space to put your doors into

You need to make sure the base is properly locked into position before the back rest will hinge upward. Try pressing down onto the base and see if the back rest goes up.
