I'm stymied at square one. I'm trying to remove the hinge cover so I can disassemble the seat at the hinge. The cover just clips on — except for one part that extends under the side of the seat and is fastened with a large plastic screw through the outermost hole:



Problem is, you can't get at the plastic screw easily. In fact, the only way you can even see it is to pry up the bottom edge of the seat with something. Has anyone run into this problem right out of the gate? I'm being super-cautious, because I don't want to break the hinge cover. It lists for $75!

Porsche design meeting:
"How can we prevent owners from doing their own repairs and maintenance?
"I've got if! We'll make things so inaccessible they can't get to them."
"Brilliant!"
