This sounds good on paper but is this how I can expect this to go?    I
really don't want to disconnect my seat etc and find out nothing works
the way its supposed to. Has anyone had experience doing the front
seats lately?

When you sit on, or push down on the seat cushion assembly when it is upside down, you are relaxing the tension on the seat fabric material. This allows it to be removed from the rail into witch the material is held, mainly by tension. The instillation is the opposite and really is pretty simple. I've done several non electric seats and the worst part I ever had was dealing with some of the plastic hinge covers that self destruct.
