Bear in mind that the Elite seat will need power on to move back & forward to access the bolts that bolt it down.

I was thinking about side airbags but yes they will need to be moved back and forth unless you are an absolute genius dwarf that is unbelievably flexible Thumbs Up!

you're going to hand winding these seat for a looooong time then - you'll need something to wind them with.
rear seat heater switches are either side of the rear ciggy lighter. There are also some relays clipped to the front edge of where the rear base sits, you'll need them too.

Rear cigarette lighter has a pair of buttons that operate the seat heater,you will need to remove this as well to go into your car.
