Best idea: get a Bentley manual
Or Short version.
--Remove 4 bolts on floor.. 1 at each end of each floor rail, holding rail to floor. Move seat forward and up for back 2 under lift-up rail covers. Front 2 accessed after moving seat all the way back and up. (if power off, seat has manual forward/backward slot on motor under seat, if needed...operate with screwdriver).
--Disconnect battery***
--Disconnect all elec plugs on seat.
--Remove bolt on end of seat belt and feed belt up through seat cover.
--Remove seat from car
***If you have air bags in seat, disconnect and cover ground strap for battery. Bag is also supposed to be shorted to ground with a special adapter. If you don't have this adapter or the knowledge and one spark of static happens, you'll blow your head off when bag deploys!!
