how easy to remove front seat on TL-S 2002

Hi guys, I owned my TL-S for 4 years but hard to reach part during the wash and clean has always been the space between console and seat as vacuum cleaners does not reac well there. Meantime dirt and filth has been accumulating slowly so I thought about detailing but I am wondering how easy it is to remove the front seat if I just remove it and clean the crap out of it. Thanks.,

Should be only 4 bolts. I know that's how it was for me.

Here's a link (w/ pics and video) to a guy who takes out his entire seat to fix a problem with the seat heater: Acura TL Seat Heater Fix « Josh?s World

make sure to ck our diy, critical you remove batt neg cable before touching the car!
The SRS plugs under the seat will cause false codes if batt or supplemental power is supplied to the system

the easy way to clean under seats is take a track day-
first good application of brakes at 100 mph will dislodge most everything - to right under your pedals~!

^^Not really, but it WILL put a load of molten chokolade in your nomex if your brakes aren't up to the task.
