Check out my signature links for rear seat heat retrofit for some info. The fronts remove with just the 4 bolts on the rails.

The seats are easy. Do NOT remove the doors. Just pull up on the bottom cushion of the rear seat. No tools required - should take 10 seconds to get it out of the car.

get a thick moving blanket. place it on the back seat behind which ever seat your taking out, undo the 4 bolts and any other stuff and tilt the seat on its back onto the blanket, swivel the bottom towards opposite door and then pull on the blanket it should slide right out. 2 people is best. the base of these seats are heavy. I'd say 5 on a scale of 10
