Thanks PW. As one of the best electrical gurus on this forum, I figured if you didn't know what this thing did then no one would.
To Porsche9, no I did not have to remove the seat to access the screws. In fact I didn't have the proper size torx so I used a very small Phillips screw driver and pressed firmly so I didn't strip the head and they came out easily even though the screw driver was at a relatively steep angle. I used a plastic pry tool to ease the lever off working one side then the other until it popped off. That's when the spring came flying out so be aware! Once the levers are off just press up towards the roof to release the snaps and pull off.
