How do you remove center floor console between the front sears? My wife drop wedding ring while driving I t fell down beside the handbrake cover.. Removed handbrake cover. cannot see ring.

The seat is connected with 2 bolts in the front and 2 nuts in the back...which are accessible by moving the seat backwards or forwards. There is really no way to just remove the cushions while the seat is in place.
So before seat removal ... I would cut a metal coat hanger. Bend so there is at least 2 feet straight with a about a 1/8"-1/4" small 90 degree bend at the end. I would fish that down from the front with the seat fully back ... between the console and seat ... as far down as you can and try hooking the ring ... even though you can not see it ... you may hit it and can push or pull it so you can then see it. But you are correct, that it could be in the track ... in which case the coat hanger will do nothing.
Then I would remove the 2 bolts up front and loosen the rear nuts but not totally remove the nuts. You could then hopefully just tilt the seat backwards without disconnecting all the wiring harnesses....to uncover the ring. If the ring is in the track ... you may have to totally remove remove the seat.
The front bolts may not be that easy to remove due to corrosion etc on an 18 year old car.
Good luck on your troubleshooting!
