I think it's mainly bolted down where you have to remove the right hand seat to get in there.

It shouldn't be hard to do.

Yeah, I suppose I was trying to avoid doing anything other than popping the top trim off, which, honestly, if I tried it that way, would be more work over a longer period trying to fight with getting a wrench in there for all three of them. I think I'm just going to take the seat and center console out, twenty minutes tops for a way easier job, not worth the hassle of trying to do it with the parts still in the car.

So, as of now, it wasn't bad at all pulling the trim/center console, or the seat. Granted, I had my battery powered impact gun to help, but I still had to take my time to avoid breaking anything or torquing anything on incorrectly/cross threaded.

None of that stuff needs an impact gun tho, I always hand screw the bolts in then use a torque wrench.

I was gentle with it, used it primarily for loosening, as I didn't want the wrench to slip and my hand to run into/crack/destroy whatever trim piece I might be near. For the re tightening I did them all by hand and then finished them off with a light tightening, not trying to over-torque or cross thread anything. I did find the job a little bit tedious, though. Not difficult by any means, but the weather was probably the main contributing factor to what made it seem tedious to begin with. This was not mechanically difficult imho.
