    Thanks for this! I am going to wait for the weather to be warmer; currently 9 F here.

    Thing with the rear seat bottom is, there is just me. From everything I have read, for that piece only, I am definitely going to need a second person. It's not the releasing of it, I can follow online pics and instructions. It is the hauling it out of the car onto the driveway. And then shoving it back IN the car. Petite female here, don't think I need to risk a back issue needlessly. So I'm thinking that for that one piece I will definitely enlist help. The rest of the car, I can work my way through. Just need some warm weather.

    At this rate, it could be Fourth of July before I can put them on! With this cold, and 5 feet plus of snow on the ground, it is hard to even imagine we will ever warm up again.

    This was one 'down side' of ordering them in Sept which I had not anticipated. And the past 4 winters, this would not have been an issue!

    Please keep the priuschat community updated on your install. I'm actually going to do this mod too! Hope your install gets easier once the temps warm up.

    I'm tempted to do this as well AND do the heating element. Def let us know - these Canadian temps are a huge change from Sunny SanDiego.

    I'd offer to help but I'm no where near close - I've had the rear seat in and out several times. I don't recall and special tricks to share to help you out tho. :(
