What happens here

After detaching the outer upholstery, the internal wires for the heated seat are revealed. These wires are fastened to the old foam cushion with small metal hog rings. The presenter dons orange safety gloves and uses pliers or a multi-tool to carefully open and remove these hog rings, fully separating the old foam from the seat cover and the metal frame. He then removes the entire old foam cushion, showing its degraded and collapsed state, ready for replacement.

Goal: Separate the old foam and heated seat wiring from the seat frame and cover

What they say

Hide

short ones over there. So this is a poultry tool set. I think it costs like 15 bucks. It comes with like five of these guys and they're important to have if you're going to do your own vehicle maintenance stuff like that. There we go. That one. Last one's right here. Loosen up around it. There we go. That's a finger slicer right there. Told you they were sharp. How you going to know if you're tough if you don't cut yourself once in a while? We did what we should have done the first place is put some gloves on. All right, so we're going to flip the seat over. I've got the new cushion down here. I don't want to contaminate it with a bunch of dust and mess. If you see the old seat, there's some springs in here and those springs have basically cut down into the cushion right here. This thing's old and crusty man. So we'll roll this back. We're actually going to flip the seat
