Installing Wet Okole Seat Covers Question....PLEASE HELP

I just have a quick question for anyone that has installed the wet okoles.....
The front seat bottoms.....do you have to remove anything from the seat to install the front seat bottoms to install the covers, or do I have to just pull and pry the seat bottom in place and fumble around underneath to tighten the straps.....I keep lookin at the seat bottom and just dont see any way to remove just the bottom cushion.....
please help

Easiest way is to remove the whole seat from the car. 4 torx bolts removed and you are good to go.

I have has Wet Okole's in several cars you can get them in with the seats still in the car.But it is faster just to remove the whole seat and do it
outside the car .

Remove the plastic fasteners on the seat cover straps (remember which way they go on) and fit the straps between the plastic seat sides and the cushion. reattach the fasteners under the seat and tighten them.
