center console was easy as pie once i found out the rear vent section pops off lol.
The rear seats come out of the car super easy just pop out the bottom by pulling up on the front of them. then the back part needs to be un-bolted 4 times on the bottom, then you lift the rear head rest and pop off the the circle covers and undo 2 more. Then it slides right out. DONT bother undoing the metal rings just cut them and pull back the leather cover slowly undoing/ cutting the rings as you go ( you only need to open up the seat enough to get the pad and your hand in). Slide the pad in, tape it down then used zip ties to tie the leather to the seat.

Thanks.
there should be 2 bolts, 12mm or 10mm, where the long metal tabs are in the first set of pics. You should be able to put your hand through and feel them.
If you took these out it should just come out with a little force. I removed the seat in my last Lexus and this was all I had to do so I assume its the same. Some cars there are also bolts close to the floor in the front of the seat so double check if its not coming out.

i will look on sunday morning Im pretty sure there are just two bolts ( if any ) once those are out you need to slide your hand under the seat to find out were the seat pin that holds the seat to the body of the car is. once you find that you will want to pull up and down until the seat comes loose
