Front seat back panel removal

Hi,

​​​​​​How to remove this panel on the back of the front seat 🤔
i can stick my fingers behind, and there is probably some kind of clip holding it. Tried to pull it down with force, does not move. Don't wanna to pull it out to strong and brake something. Just can't find any youtube video on the topic. 🤷🏻‍♂️.. Need to access the air hoses to check for leakage on the lumbar cushions, since there is some air losing and the compressor activates each 5 sec .

Are those instructions for the Dynamic seats? It seems they are, but I saw a video that showed removing 2 screws from underneath the bottom of the seatback first.

On my passenger Dynamic seat the left side bolster seems to pop out of its hinge and reset back to its stationary position as soon as the bladder starts to inflate.

Thanks,
Glenn

Thanks a lot!
Found a hole and applied a thick layer of rubber/plastic glue. Cost me only 2 euros 😃
But what a stupid peace of engineering with metal bars and small plastic pipes , metal wire with sharp edge that rubbed against the bladder and made a hole..
Mercedes should be suede for such stupidity 😅

(Don't mind the square cut-out on the top of the bladder, it is not original, i did it and tried to use the piece to patch the hole with it, but it would not stick.. probobly me waiting to long for the glue to dry or something )
