theres two plastic covers on the back of the rails behind the seat
pop those off to reveal 2 bolts.
remove those, then you lift the back, and slide the seat towards the back of the car to release the clip at the front of the seat (have a look at it and youll understand how)

voila.

its a 2 minute job

push the seat all the way to the front and there will be 2 plastic covers in the back. take them off and there is a 15 mm bolt. one on each side. and put your head under the seat fro the back and you will see a wiring harness. airbag.....unplug it. then tilt the seat to the front and pick straight up. the front brackets dont have bolts just tilt and pull.

intall exact opposite. dont forget the airbag wire. if you dont plug it in it will not know how big you are, thus the airbag will come out full force if you get into an accident

edit.. so.....i cant type that fast. i tryed

welllllll.......... I didn't mention I bought the Red Line Recaro's due to the fact I was gunna get them reapulstered either way. well it turns out they don't have sensors for an Airbag under them..... So when I turn my car on, in the DIC it sez service air bag. Kinda pissed/ annoyed about that.

Also, Eneded up having the driverside rail bent, and it wouldn't go into the slot. I had to pound it out and ended up slicing my hand. Not bad enough to go to the hospital, but goodenough that it was a steady streem of bloob.

like it was said B 4, Very Easy Install. Now, the Review of instll / product.

Install was Very simple. 2 bold in the rear, push up slide back, and done. The only reason it took me more then 10 min was because the piece that slides intot the floor was bent and I had to unbend it.

Product= I have the G85 but I ordered it last month so no Recaro's for me. Now that I have the "Full true G85" I'm SSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOO Gald I got em. SUPER FRIGGIN DIFFERENCE. Any1 who dosn't have them is just missing out. I can now shift in a turn being as I don't have to hold myself inplace with my left leg. I bought them from a user off this forum a while back, and the condition of them was a lil less then Good but overall I'm happy with them. Like I said, I'll probably get them whole seat redone sum how but untill I have some $$$ to just **** away on them seats, they'll do. Thankx to Ted and Anomalous for the help.... +10 Rep for both U guys when It'll let me! lol That is all

BTW, 2 things after having them in for a night.

1 HOW THE F* DO YOU GET THE HEAD REST'S OUT OF THESE THINGS!!!!! I PUSHING IN THE LIL BUTTON BUT THEY WONT COME OUT!!! (Reason being i put them in on the wrong side and need to switch them lol)

2 They smell like, well like that Mr clean stuff I used to smell as a kid when my mom would do the kitchen floor. lol whats the deal with that? I have had the car for a month, and now this smell (Its not a bad smell, just diff) is getting rid of the New car smell, so I guess its time to finally get a tree air freshener. (sp?)
