My drivers side seat has a torn bucket. I want to remove and re-upolster or replace it , what is easiest way to remove the bucket only, or does the whole seat need to be removed? If so where the heck are the bolts ? I have located two that secure the seat but haven't been able to locate the others... thanks Brian

Just the two in the back Brian, then it comes out of the front holders, you have to recline the seat to get them loose.
