Default Re- Trim seats

Im taking my drivers side seat to be re-trimmed on the side bolster.

I suspect this cap has to come off to get the seat adjustment wheel off is this correct or does it come off another way? Cheers

Pretty sure you pop the centre out and there will be a nut inside that you unscrew

There's probably a U clip on the back of it

Took it to the trimmer and he said Subaru glue their fabric to the foam which makes the chances of a good repair uncertain, apparently it has to be really bad (delaminated) for to be a success,
Unhappy face.

Can they not just re trim over the top. Or re build the foam from scratch?

I thought that as i was leaving, but also i was considering the cost 300quid.
SM trimming in Chiddingly do high end work, there was a single seater Bentley out side when i arrived, i would like to think he gave me all the options.
