How to replace seat trim piece?

Can someone advise how to remove this plastic trim piece on the driver's seat. TIA!

Because of the bolt that holds the back of the seat in place that also goes through the trim piece, and which requires a VERY large Star driver, I let the dealer do it. Couldn't budge the darned bolt.

However, there is another very good looking alternative: https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...trim+wood+seat - I hope it is still available; I have no more sources for it.

Xoote - bumping 2 minutes after the initial post doesn't do much good.

Thanks Skylaw......thought it would be a fairly easy DYI but I think I'll just have the dealer replace it.
