On a Palm Beach model with the rear couches/bed setup, there are two large allen headed bolts under the skirts at the front of each seat.
Lift the seat slightly and remove the bolts. At the back "wall" of the seat there's a horizontal slot that sits between two parts of the frame. The slot is just wide enough to fit over the aluminum angle riveted (or screwed/bolted - don't recall) to the front of the cabinet (or the opposite side dummy cabinet).

When you've removed the two bolts at the front, you'll have to wiggle the seat forward while moving it through different states of fold up/fold down. It's a tight fit in the slot but you should be able to get it to release eventually. Repeat for other side.
