Default modifying rear seat to fold down?

I remember a thread a while ago about modifying the rear seat in an extended cab so you could fold the back rest down. the search isn't working so for those of you that have done it, could you please refresh my memory of how you did it.
pics would be great as well!

thanks guys!

If I remember correctly, all they did was unbolt the seat(don't forget the bolt in the middle of the seat with the 2 cables), and left it up. There are 2 hooks on the back that go into 2 loops. Set the seat back down with the hooks out of the loops and you're in business. I don't know if it folded down everytime they hit the brakes or what. I don't remember anything about fabbing up a latch or anything.

In my '99 I had the rear seat lifted 2" and the back of the seat wouldn't hook in. It only moved under really hard braking.
