you have to remove the bottom seat pan, one 10mm bolt on the drivers side of the car, between the seat pan and the seat backs... (you have to reach down into the leather and pry it apart)

then you have to remove the side bolsters, once the seat pan is out, you can see that each side is held in by one 10mm bolt, and then slide them up and out, and then pry back the shelf a bit till you undo the clips so you can work in there easily... just don't pull the shelf totally off...

When MrHeeltoe installed my TEIN SS, all he did was remove my rear side bolsters.

You remove them by grabbing the top portion of the bolster then placing a fist about 1/3 down the bolster and push in real hard/deep to bend the bolster a little bit. You want the bolster to take on a slight concave appearance to remove it.
