I can take it to a car stereo installer, but I'd rather have someone who knows our cars to do it.

I'm thinking that to do the doors and trunk would not take more than 1 full day.

Up for it? Not for free obviously.

Well, the rear seats were quite easy... just pop up the rear bench then for the backs, fold them down, lift up a cover undo a screw and remove.

For the front seats... as far as I can remember

-move the seat as far forward and backward, remove the little plastic rail covers
-unbolt four bolts holding it to floor, seat will then be free
-adjust seat so that it sits close to the front, perfectly upright and sitting as low as possible
-ensure headrest is all the way down
-pivot seat back, unplug wiring harness
-snap off side cover for seatbelt retaining clip and unclip seatbelt
-lay a blanket down over the scuff trim/painted sill
-have one person stand outside car and another sit behind seat to be removed
-pivot top of seat out, lifting from behind and walk the seat out... lifting at ends of seat rails for most support and avoiding scraping any surfaces

In Bentley fashion "installation is reverse of above"...

If you are strong enough, you could probably do it with one person... but it was much easier with two sets of hands to ensure the seat came out easily and didn't scrape/ding anything up.

Once was enough. I'll gladly offer operational support... pro-bono.

Thanks. I contact you when the time is right.

After all the time and money spent my car would probably be worse off than when I started. There is no way I could get through a job like that without breaking numerous things.

Excellent job though, it makes me want to attempt it, I could probably get my doors done without screwing up too much.
