I have tried a lot of Junk yards, They said they will not sell just the cable, and they also said they don't even have the seat.

Is there away I could rig some sort of pull that I use to pull up on the release?

Well, I guess I'd think about trying to make that cable. Not really sure what it looks like, whether you can rig something up using a bicycle brake cable? Cut to length then hooked around & tied or soldered?

It's the ends on the cable, there not normal cable ends, the one on the bottom I think is a circle and a bolt goes though it. What a pain this is.
