Removing Seats Options

[marcsenpai]

This may be a really noob question but, I was wondering if anyone knows how to remove the seats since I'm doing a deep clean of the car. Especially the passenger seat. It would also help out alot if you could include picture pointing out what I need to do same re installation. Thanks a bunch!

maybe someone will be able to provide you with pictures but there are 4 14mm head bolts in the front and rear, they are kind of in plain sight. Just slide the seat all the way back to get to the front ones easier and slide the seat all the way forward to access the rears.

There is also a plug connected to the seat so disconnect that before pulling the seat.

Thanks for the replies finally got it the only reason why I couldn't do it because there were plastic tabs I had to pull off to actually get to the bolts.

Should I disconnect the battery too? The negative side? Before disconnecting the wire beneath the seat?

you don't have to, if you short the power wire, all it does is turn on a light if the car is on (the seatbelt light). If off, it won't do anything. Well it will arm the airbag on whichever side you're working on, but, cutting the wires or shorting them won't set it off.

So is it okay just to disconnect it I'm just worried about the passenger airbag going off and destroying my windshield. Plus what if I were not to put the seat back and reconnect everything will that ruin the whole airbag setup or anything like I just left it there with no seat attached but the wire is just sitting there. Because weight reduction .

That wire is for the seatbelt latch, not the airbag. We don't have smart airbags. If we hit something, both of our airbags deploy. You can disconnect that wire any time you want for any reason with no negative consequences.

Oh cool good to know, I though if the passenger seat belt wasn't clicked in that side wouldn't go off.

Thanks a bunch for the info now I can be at peace with the whole process. Still new to this so thanks again for bearing with me.
