Hi, i'm trying to install a Clazzio Leather Seat into my 2014 EX and the Passenger fits really nicely but on the Driver's Power Seat I can not put the cover on nicely because there is a Front Plastic Black Bracket and there's another Side Plastic Bracket that holds all the Up/Down Adjustment Seat Buttons.

How would I be able to just remove those without taking off the whole Driver Seat?

I've Looked around and saw no Screws unlike other Power Seat where there are Screws holding those Bracket this one doesn't have any screws.

A nice firm tug?

Just get a long crow bar, and pry it out. When the metal and the fasteners break, the seat or part you want should just slide out.

OR you could put some explosives under the seat, light em, and that would blow your the covers right off and perhaps the seat. I'd the seats out its easier to get to right?

ORRRR MAYBE.... NAH, it's not for you.

Serious answer please before I accidentally pop out the Air Bag...

You should still disconnect the battery since there's an airbag on the side of the seats.

I've worked on Toyota seats right down to bare frames. You may want to have a professional upholstery shop to get you past this part. Very easy to break trim tabs without the right tools, methods.

Glad you brought that up. I tried what you said, typing "front seat" into the search box. All the results I got were out on the internet, not in the online manual. Is this the state of the art for Honda's online service manual? Not too convenient, IMO. Thanks Honda.

HondaBob: You want to just search the contents of that document, not the entire Internet. Depending on your web browser, you can probably access the document search box by hitting "Ctrl-F" on your keyboard.

superhonda: In the service manual link that oOKhanhOo posted, you want the section titled "Front Seat Recline Cover Removal and Installation". You'll see in the driver's seat diagrams there that for the front bracket, there is indeed one screw, and there are two different fasteners that you need to remove for the side bracket cover. The service manual recommends removing the seat first, but if you were already able to do the passenger side successfully, I think you'll be able to do the driver's side similarly. Good luck!

Alright thank you so much for the very clear diagram link, so far without taking off the whole seat leaving me very tiny space to open the side screw between the Seat and Transmission I have to use an Offset ScrewDriver to get it which is way easier to use than i thought, I guess maybe Honda did not really over-tight that screw too much.

Still working on the Side Bracket which is a little risky cause of Air-Bag connector but i'll try to figure out so easy way around this balloon.

Hopefully I can show off my new Leather seat once everything works out...

If you have an Apple product don't click Control+F as it does nothing. The contents of that website is in perfect alphabetical order though. Just go to "Front seat cushion removal". Cushion evidently means what you sit on. It's a bit cryptic but it gives a general idea. I seriously doubt it's an official online workshop manual as those give serious details what tools to use and how to actually remove clips, etc. At least they did a few years ago.

I am astounded by the amount of info available for free though! That's a keeper. :thmsup:
