Removing 02 WRX seats?

How much work is involved or how much of a PITA is it to remove seats? I've never done it before. I want to take them out so I can really clean underneath them and such. I'm trying to find a write up or something on how to do it. Any tips/reccomendations?

 
I haven't taken them out of a WRX, but I have WRX seats in my 97 Impreza. It's simple. There are 4 bolts ... two in front of the rails, two in back. The back two have plastic covers on them that should just pop off. That's it! I think they're 14mm IIRC

No problem man ... I don't remember if it's easier to pull them out the front, or the back doors but I'm thinking the back doors ...

 
u might wanna recline the front seats when trying to pull them out the door i tried taking them out without reclining them and kind of scuffed my door card lol

 
the 14mm seat fixing bolts tend to be verry rusty, esp the front ones on driver side.

beware shearing em off. preventative Rx with PB blaster is recommended.

pls don't axe how I know this.

My interior is so nice and clean now. Shampooed the carpets and cleaned all the nooks an crannys.

 
^^ I need to do that... after the winter and a big camping trip in the rain my car kinda smells bad.... haha

 
My WRX is my DD... but I just cannot stand any little bit of dirtyness inside or out. I drive myself crazy cleaning this thing... but I always enjoy the end result

make sure you dont cross thread the bolts puttin them back in either.

 
My car is a ... mess. Inside and out. The other day it was full of boat parts, but I got most of those out, and now it is full of some boat parts and a lot of theater stuff...

Oh, not to mention I have about 4 computers, and random computer bits kicking around.... It is my DD and work car, since I have a lot of jobs It is full of a bit of each one..
