    I've never done it but saw there's tabs in the back you have to reach in and release then pull the entire seat up from the rear....in the comments, a guy with a 2021 confirmed this works in the Gen 4.....post a picture of the covers!

    Just make sure you don't cover the air intake for the hybrid fan.

    Yes i will. They just arrived today, i guess i'll install them this weekend. I couldn't help myself and i just installed the passenger upper part of the seat, the backrest and it is a perfect fit. We'll see the final result, i will keep you updated. If they fit well they're a bargain for 270 dollars or so that i paid for them.
