i would think that you could get it out easier by pulling the seat out... i would try a flat hea screwriver or soemthing that will be able to get underneath it... you could try the bubble gum on a stick, or tape for that matter. something sticky that will it in the track and grab the dime

i've never taken mine out but in most cars there are two bolts on the ends of each track... you could use a rachet or a wrench, it should be pretty simple

Just pop off the cover. Its not hard, then the two bolts come out of the back of the seat and it leans Foward.

I swapped my seat for recaro's and then swapped em back so Ive done the seats a few times...
