Seat Swap
I am getting ready to swap from cloth to leather. It is the same color so i wont need to mess with changing seat belts..etc
How difficult is this to do and are there any pointers to make this go smoother?
Thanks Up front for any feeback on this.

I always wondered what that button was for. I guess if everyone used it, we would have no reason to post anything on the board. Thanks For the pointer. You have been a great help and have proved that, your post was even more wastefull then mine was. Sorry to waste anyone's time or board space. I will venture into the historical data of ls1tech to never return again.

Actually it is very easy. Each of the front seats are mounted with four nuts of the same size (I beleive 13mm) a gear wrench works very well for this. The are a few little plastic trim pieces held in with phillips head screws to move as well. If power, disconnect the plug under the DS seat. Move the seat back and forth to gain access to all the bolts.
Back seat, the "buns" are held in the middle with 13mm (I think) bolts facing to the front of the car. On the seat back you will need to diconnect the seat belt loops fron the seat back, this can be very hard. You need a Torx bit, (I recall T10) these bolts are Loctited in, take your time and they will come out. The seat back is held in with 13 mm nuts facing down at the "hinge" points, just be careful removing the back seat around so as not to scratch the plastic side panels.
I think that will have you covered.
