Removing the pillow. It's easy!
No tools required, your fingernail will work.
Pop the back off from the rear of the seat.
The pillow pops right out

They look like 918 seats. The gloss finish on the uncovered CF portion looks perfect.

Easiest, no risk, mod ever. No reason to make the seats look like they intended.
I'm finger nail challenged and needed to use a dash trim removal tool. But anything can be used to pop the backs off.

Yes!!!, just pop them back in and the clip on the backs again. The clips are study and would be hard to break.

I don't have a trim removal tool, but the photo of the plastic tool gave me the idea to use a plastic hotel room key card (or credit card), super quick and easy to pop the backs off in less than a minute. I much prefer the look with the cushion removed. Also looks way better when looking at the backs of the seats through the rear window, until you then see the ugly yellow warning stickers on the seat backs. Take these off next and makes for a complete LWB mod.
