What happens here

With the driver's side door open, the presenter unbolts the seat from the truck's floor. He notes that the seat is held by only four bolts, making removal straightforward. After loosening the bolts, the seat is tilted back to reveal a wiring harness underneath, which is for the heated seat element. This wire, identified by a blue connector, must be unclipped to completely remove the seat from the vehicle. The presenter mentions that his heated seat is no longer functional but the connection still needs to be undone.

fluffy that is? Now you can see how flat that is. Big difference. So much like a lot of trucks of this vintage there are only four bolts underneath here holding the seat. I've already loosened those bolts and the seat just lifts right out. So I suggest that you take the back of your seat you lean it all the way back and then you just simply lift out your seat. Now if you have a heated seat which it doesn't work on there anymore anyway but we'll tip it up and there's a wire attached to the bottom of the seat. There'll be a little heating pad underneath the upholstery as we remove it. So we'll unclip that and we'll take it back to the tailgate. Good deal. Cool. So this was connected via this wire to the electronic seat warmer and this is connected to the back of the seat. So in other words this turns the whole seat warmer on. There's a pad under here and a pad in the seat back. Let's go back to the tailgate. So if I had been smart I probably would have ordered a new heat pad to put in here too. So my heated butt seat works. That would have been awesome but too bad. So sad. I probably just unplug all this stuff and just pull it out. So the seat cover is a leather seat cover with synthetic sides and you could have a cloth seat. Either one it doesn't matter. It all comes
