Default this is part of a tech you should read!

Run the seat all the way forward and remove the plastic trim bits at the aft end of the tracks. Now, run the seat all the way back, and remove the plastic trim bits covering the bolts that hold down the front (careful with these, they break if you take 'em off wrong). Remove the two bolts holding down the front and lift the front and disconnect the wiring. Slid the seat backwards out of the track, and try and get it out of the car without sliming your carpeting or gouging your console. Good Luck!

Default Thanks i missed that in the tech section. Bentley is showing a plug for the airbag...

I guess it plugs in once you remove it from the car. Does this mean that the air bag will go off if you do not use this? Or is it just possible with static electricity or something? Any ideas?

Default If you are not keeping the seat in the car, you can put a 5ohm resistor

in the plug end that stays in the car. Works great.
