Default Help pleaes folks!how do you remove the front seats

I'm wanting to give the old girl a good going over on the inside. At the moment it's got dog hair all over the shop. I was thinking the best way to do it is remove both front seats so i can have a really good go at the carpet with the wonder brush and a wet vac. Was just wondering how hard it is to take out the seats (is it just 4 bolts?) if anyone could do me a step by step guide that would be great. with pics would be even better

Alos can anyone recomend a product to clean the seats with. While i've got them out the car i may as well do a propper job my car is a 99 uk turbo. Thanks

4 bolts is right, i find it easier to slide the seat forward, undo the 2 back bolts then slide it back and do the front to easy. fitting is the same in reverse.

Just finger tighten them first, then use a socket set, don't over tighten them as they will strip real easy mate and you may damage captive nut that holds them.
