Removing Leg Support Adjuster Knob

[EfrenFlores]

Hello. just bought a set of Anthrazit Seats. These are BMW code 0269 cloth. I am starting the process of reupholstering/repairing the drivers seat and I need to remove the plastic cover but Im having trouble with trying to remove the adjuster knob for the leg support. I already removed the pins to the plastic cover as well. What is the proper technique to removing it? Thanks

The first time I took apart seats I too had a hell of a time with that knob. But it's a piece of cake now that I know how.

Just take two tools, like a hammer or adjustable plier, and at the same time lever it up on both sides. Even the most stuck on ones will pop off with little trouble.

When prying it off try not to damage the plastic cover

yes a long flat head screwdriver can work it with cloth between plastic & screwdriver
