Broken Seat (at the seatbelt mechanism)

[simonshearer]

I cannot find anything in a search that tells me how to disassemble this to find the damaged part and replace it.

Any ideas?

I have a few of those trim pieces, I could maybe post a pic of what the attaching parts look like. I am unsure now (I had to replace some of this stuff once, but quite a long time ago).
I "think" the rear cover comes off first, then there are small screws that attach the front cover, but again not 100%, could be just the opposite.
Parts dept ordered the worng parts and were NON returnable so I ended up getting them.

Pics
OK this is obviously the passengers side, but brand new.
Also it seems obvious the rear cover comes off first, but be careful as it may not just snap off the seat, I just don't remember right now.
You can see the tabs for the front cover, I would guess one or more of these might be broke, or the screws cam off somehow.
You can see the first 2 pics show the tab on top, the second 2 show the one on the outside, and the last pic is kind of tricky, but the little tab sticking out is also apparently for a screw.
I am guessing you might need to remove the seat bottom cushion, then the back cushion, then possibly the headrest to get to everything you need to.
Also possibly the cover on the back of the backrest.
Like I said, I had to work on this area once, but it's been awhile, but as I recall it was an awful amount of work just for those covers.

type in "r129 seat removal" in the search on youtube. The name of the youtube user is Tamango. Great video that helped me out with the same problem.
