2022 Grom Seat Won’t release

You gotta really pull up on the back and bend it slightly. Once I got mine off I threw a couple fat washers under the hooks to make them sit lower. Now it comes off a little easier.

Under the hooks, as in between them and the seat to space them out more.

My observations lead me to believe the pin locks the seat down in the back at a specific height. The hooks I spaced down that keep the middle of the seat secured are still pulling it down when it is latched, just a little less tightly so I can take the seat off with less force. if there is a difference in height, I have not noticed. The latching pin still latches and the hooks still hook.
