Default Question about seat track installation

I just bought a drivers side power seat track for my FRC. After removing the seat from the car, is it simply a matter of removing the four bolts on the old track and installing the new one? I realize that the electrical connections have to be swapped. I don't have to remove anything on the seat bottom do I? Thanks.

I've never made the swap, but have had the seats out of my car. I believe the FRC has standard seats and not the sport, so should be just a matter of disconnecting the wiring harness from the floorboard and swapping with the new track via the 4 bolts.

You will need the wiring harness for the passenger side that goes from the BCM footwell up to the rear for antenna (verts) and CD changer (coupes) and has power seat harness control attached to it. I was thinking about doing the same thing to my FRC and bought original harness from a Vert.
