Strato Bucket Seat Question ???

Can someone tell me how to remove the seatback lock button without breaking it of course, lol.. I'm trying to remove the seatback cover to replace 2 buttons that broke off. I wish I never ordered the seatcovers, not good for Fat Bastards, lol...

If you see the image in the link, I think you just need to pry it out a little bit & release the tab on the left or right side of the button w/ a flat head screwdriver http://www.johnsclassiccars.com/part...Chevelle/12985

As Ron said, a thin screwdriver or scraper pushing in from each side will compress the retaining clips and allow you to pull it straight out.

Look down underneath the seat back when its tilted forward, there should be 2 screws holding it on.
