Siverado Center Seat Back (60/40 Bench)

[mwmst]

How do you remove the center seat back (console) on a 60/40 bench seat.

 

I tried to remove the seat back so it would be easier to try to rig some hinges, but after the side bolts were removed it still would not slide out

 

My lid broke at the hinges for the 2nd time. 1st time replaced under warranty.

 

Also, is it possible to change out only the lid on the seat back?

 

Thanks,
