Seat cover removal *HELP*

[Zap]

I've posted this before, but I got no answers. Hopefully someone can give me a clue here.

The lumbar hose broke off with a tiny piece left in the connection point on the bag. I need to remove the seat cover up so I can look into the opening where the bag is and use tools to remove the broken piece before finding a replacement hose.

I tried pulling and everything, but cannot get the seat cover to come very far up. There has to be something I'm doing wrong!!!

1) Remove head rest

2) Unzip bottom of seat back

3) Reach around edge of bolster and find the edge of the upholstery where it is wrapped around. "Unroll" it on all 3 sides. Start at the top or the bottom of bolster.

4) Hold exposed bolster frame up and remove upper and lower springs with pliers

5) Next to the springs there are tabs that keep the bolster for rotating too far. Squeze the tabs and rotate the bolster off of the frame. Repeat on opposite side

6) Remove the 2 scews that hold the inner bolster frame in place

7) Remove the hog rings that hold the leather to the lumbar bag through the bolster hole

8) Reach up through the bottom and remove the hog rings that are above the lumbar bag

9) Slide cover off of frame

10) Reninstall in opposite order

I can confirm those directions, although I haven't seen a seat with hog rings above the lumbar, just on the sides.
