Removing seats in salvage yard with no battery power

[bighank]

Have 2 severely damaged front seats in a 2012 MKZ.  What detailed steps can I take to remove the driver and passenger seats from a salvaged car which has no battery power and therefore the seats cannot be moved on the seat track.  How many electrical connectors are there to be removed?  I believe the heated/cooled seats have multiple connectors.

What tools do I need to remove the seats (sockets, Torx wrench, rust remover, etc).  Am looking at seats from a 2010 MKZ which I believe are the same as a 2012 MKZ.

Hi bighank. If you can not get at the nuts/bolts in the current positions, have you thought about simply bringing a spare battery (beg, borrow etc) and connecting it so that you can move the seats?

Jump starters are relatively cheap and very handy to have around all the time.
