Front seat remove - '97 Acura CL 3.0

Hello,
can anyone give me a write-up and/or pics on how to remove the front drivers seat (power) on a 97 Acura CL 3.0. The motor will not move the seat backwards. Not sure what my options are. I made sure the fuse is good and nothing is blocking the track below the seat, but seeing a great deal is limited with the seat still in place. Any help/suggestions would be great.

Does it only move forward? Does it try to move backwards? Not uncommon to get coins stuck in the rails from above, quarters will stop a seat.

remove the 2 visible 14mm bolts either in the front or back, as for the 2 that arent visible..feel where the bolts are and slowly removing the bolts with an openended 14mm wrench.
When you have removed the all 4 bolts, carefully lift the seat up just a little bit and umplug the power-seat-motor, ..i take my seats out every time i clean my car.. not difficult at all ..enjoy

How did it go? If not the motor I do have a switch for ya. Or you could try the switch first before dumping the $$$ on a power seat track.
