Seat Lifter advice please

[walchy01]

Morning all

I am wanting to take my drivers side seat lifter off, u know the thing you pull up on the side of the seat so you can get into the back But it seems solid, do not want to break it pulling it off, the reason for taking it off is the trim surround was missing and i now have one so want to fit it

When i say it is solid, i mean i have had a full strength pull at it and it does not moveat all

Thanks for any tip or something i'm missing here

Mines the opposite, it won't stay on! Its definitely a push fit though, so try and prise it off

I had to change both of mine,I broke the drivers one as i was being to rough lol,just kept wiggling the passenger one and it came off after a bit.

use a pair of long nosed plyers and prise it off using the metal frame work of the seat...

Thanks Ken, not tried the lyers yet, tried to rise off with a screw driver but had no joy..
