Cleaning - front seat removal ?

I'd like to do a good cleaning of the interior, especially vacuuming, but my attachments aren't small enough to reach in between the door sills and seats, etc. Any concerns with removing the front seats involving connections, side air bags, etc ?

Someone here did it recently and posted in the "what you did to the G today" thread. I've pulled the passenger seat to clean the contacts of the switch. Just disconnect the battery and you'll be fine. Just 4 bolts holding the seat in and tilt it sideways to get to the connections

The seats are really easy to get out, just be careful with them because they weigh a ton

Found that post (I remember seeing it / reading previously as well but forgot by now). He didn't mention anything and you indicate there's nothing out of the ordinary so I should be good to go.

I imagine they do ! We used to remove the 2nd-row seats in our Odyssey and besides being heavy, they were awkward - very lopsided balance-wise until I learned to fold them 'flat' before removing them.

Thanks to both of you for the replies !

Ehhh, it was getting dark when I started so I didn't disconnect the electrical connection. What I was able to do after removing the (4) bolts (driver's side rear bolts needed help from my 18" breaker bar !) was flip the seat backwards and then TILT it so it actually stayed there on its own. Worked quite well. From the front, I could access almost everything. The small area I couldn't get to was accessible from the rear seat and I was able to tip the seat forward with one hand and vacuum with the other.
