I just did my front suspension from air to coils, I have been hesitant to do the rear even though I have the parts. The back seat has been very difficult. I have the bottom cushions off and cant seem to release the back cushions as there are many plugs, wires, etc. I want to pull it all out to give the mechanic free access to get to that strut top without having to pull at stuff or getting the back all dirty. I have scoured the web and cant find anything, a few videos, but they are normally the one piece seat back which is easy, I have the reclining. Was wondering if I paid for the TIS manuals for 2 days through Toyota at $20 on their site, would it be worth it? Has anybody ever gotten access and if so, would something like interior removal procedures with diagrams even be in there?

TIS manuals are usually detailed, it should provide you with all necessary steps. I got only two wire harnesses behind my seats, though, I have just heated seats. You are likely to have more wires behind your seats.

Try searching the forum for rear strut replacement, it should include rear seat removal.
