Be advised, if this is your first time doing seat covers, these are not for the casual installer. I did interior car restorations and upholstery work for 5 years, and this is probably 6-7/10 in difficulty and time consumingness

Pay a professional to install them

Lol I like your spirit. Some people actually like a challenge and are patient enough to work through problems.

Warning noted though.

Not difficult.

-Seat needs to come out, so all side panels off,
-remove seatbelt, remove seat from car,
-remove side panels over seatbelt buckle and such,
-disconnect seat warmer and seat belt buckle wiring,
-unhook seat back cover from seat base,
-unclip seat base cover from seat frame,
-cushion and cover come off together
