How do you remove the front power seat from a Camry SE? Having trouble locating the 4 bolts and I don't want to tear up the decorative plastic hiding the bolts. Then I would like to remove the hog rings that you sit on and put the seat back in. These horizontal rings hurt after a few minutes in the car. So I want to remove the horizontal wires and add a 1/2" thick cushion under the fabric.

A key slid off back of bottom seat and slid under it where it wasn't reachable without removing it.

Hi gasman 21,

Under both side of the seats you would be able to find a lock, push the tabs and lift the seat. Pull the seat assy forward to get it off.
