Front seat removal 850

Hi,
I need to remove the front passenger electric seat from my 850 T5R to run some cables to the rear! But after looking under there it seemed a bit daunting!
How does the seat come out and how do I go about removing the wiring connections for the electric operation?
Thanks,
Slock

    usually the nuts for the seats are under the car.

    what cables are you running? For the CD? If so thats not a good place to run them. You can remove the trim paneling ad lift up the carpet and tuck the wires there. Also nobody steps in that area so the wires will not get crushed or damaged.

    So much easier also.

      Im running 2 lengths of 4AWG power cable,6 RCA cables and 4pairs of speaker cables too!
      Too many to go under the trim!
      On my 960 I managed to run all these up the A pillar and along the roof to the C pillar and into the boot (trunk) but the 850 is an estate (wagon) and it means theyd have to go round 1 heck of a bend to reach the luggage area!!!
