Two 12mm front bolts. Two 12mm rear bolts. Lean the seat outward. Unplug the seatbelt sensor and seat heater plugs. Pull the seat up and out in the folded position. Be careful not to scratch your door panel with the rails. Good luck.

Why are you taking your seat out again?

On the driver's seat, I can't see the front bolt on the door side. Its covered by the plastic housing for the trunk/fuel door levers. Does that housing just pull off?

Ok. I figured WTF, I got nothing much to loose. There is a small door hiding a small slotted head sheet metal screw holding that plastic housing down. Pop open the door, remove the screw, and pull up, wiggle, and that housing will come off revealing the bolt holding the seat on that side. Easy.

My front seat was rocking because this bolt was loose. I tightened it down real good and now no more rocking.

Replacing the plastic cover took a bit of wiggling but really its no problem.

If you can't find it. Grind it. RIGHT?
