Default removing seat from the rails?

I want to remove my seat from the rails. I have the electronic rails, with the manual back recline.

I see 4 bolts holding the rail to the seat, but the front 2 bolts are in the seat, with no way to really get to them. Am I suppose to rip into this?

Bill I'm not really sure why you're having a problem.

There are 4 bolts holding the seat shell to the tracks and 4 bolts holding the tracks to the car.
To remove the seat shell from the tracks first remove the bottom seat cushion (there is a retainer under the seat towards the front). Then remove the 4 bolts holding the shell to the tracks. I just used a rachet with an extension to remove the bolts.
If this doesn't clear things up for you let me know and I will take some pics for you :cheers:
