its seems alot of work to start with, i stripped the seat base off the new seat i bought and took out my own seat and stripped the base off that, then fitted the good base to my seat. Prob took me 1 1/2 hours.

I would be faster now.

No air bag probs, i disconnected (-) terminal before tacking seat out.

i would say to do both front seats i would give your self a good 3-4 hours and lots of tea.

I would highly recommend the use of zip ties rather than trying to re use the metal hogg clips (impossible to re-use)

Obviously you would need to get the headrest off, from memory there is a patch you push in on the top section of the seat back that releases the head rest.

Hope that helps.
