Heavens, I didn't cut my carpet. I did yank about a foot to 18" of it out from under the plastic moldings/whatever and folded it back out of the way. It went back into place when I was finished, easier than I expected it to. Tucked it back under the moldings a little and banged it with my fist a couple of times. Can't tell that I ever had it out.
I did learn a simple trick with the seat reassembly. The biggest pain with that step is getting the female seat belt sockets back through the seat bottom. Put the seat bottom in place far enough to fish the seat belt sockets through, far enough to buckle the male end into it. Leave it buckled and it won't come back out while you complete the seat installation. Work with getting one belt buckled at a time. The buckled ones of course will stay in while you do the others. You may have to tug on the belt some to pull the buckled assembly up through the seat properly. At least that gives you something to tug with.
Yeh, that was the first thought to run through my head, about it maybe not working to disconnect the batter cable. My experience has been that some codes on some vehicles clear out that way, and some don't. Not much to lose in trying (except keeping the wife busy reprogramming pre-sets).
