[Angry mum]

Hi I hope I am asking this question on the correct forum my daughter has dropped an AirPod down the seat belt opening on our 2007  Lexus LS 460

it has electric/heated seats I have looked under and can see 2 lugs/tabs black with a yellow oblong mark on not sure if these are how to

open/remove the seat if  could anyone help it would be greatly appreciated as the AirPods aren’t hers ! 

Many Thanks

Hello Anita and welcome to the LOC.

On the earlier models the seat base is removed by pulling on 2 tabs one on each side of the seat base, the LS460 is probably similar so I would suggest gently pulling the tabs you have found and see if the base releases. If you are not sure however perhaps pop into your local Lexus dealer who may be able to retrieve the item ( more inclined if you have your car serviced with them).

I have looked on the exploded parts diagram but it isn’t very clear, there are a lot of electrics underneath the seats for the recline mechanisms.
