You're talking the rear seats around an autopower-like half cage? There is a reinforcement wire frame like thing that goes around the outside on the back of the back rest. If you cut that near where it touches the bar it will flex out of the way.

Apart from the Motec install Im making a few tweaks this year.
Im dropping spring rates about 10% all around because I am going to change to primarily running Street Tires (XA) in the future. Im also adding a helper spring to the rear and giving it about 0.5-0.75" of droop. It wont have any effect going through a corner and lifting a tire since the bar will overpower it. The only reason is to give the rear some room to extend instead of hitting a shock limit with bumps on the street.
Gotta figure out if Im putting a radio back in the car also. Since street car, I might look into that a bit more seriously. I have all the parts including the MR sub box.

Hes a video of my fastest lap from the weekend. We gave it a good crack had a mixed bag of results. Race 1 we had an epic battle with the eventual winner and came home in third. Race 2 Had another couple of great battles. threw 2 spots away in the last corner due to missing some downshifts. Race 3 we were on for another solid third place battling for second and the downshift issue reappeared which dropped me back to 9th on the last lap.
We didnt have the tyres and straight line speed available to compete with the top 2 unfortunately and the nut behind the wheel is a little rusty. Still had heaps of fun.
The lap is a 1:07.5 which was fast enough to give us pole for the last race. Optimal is down at a 1:06.8 now so pretty stoked about that. Almost did it on the lap here but didnt quite get the last 2 turns right and gave up a bit of time.

When you pull the paddle and the barrel doesnt rotate like its suppozed to lol. got a box of neutrals as it only half shifted. managed to get it into a gear eventually
Think its burred itself up again will have to pull box out and have it polished again. the bore holes for where the shift detent pins sit were never radiused/ de burred after honing is what we found a while back which caused the same issue. we did what we could at the time but now its the winter for us will pull the box and have it tidied up properly.

It definitely hooks up even better with fresh tyres. my only downside currently with the setup is if i go too hard pre apex it buzzes the inside front tyre up
