No I didn't sell it. If you have an idea on how to get it off without breaking it I will sell it to you if you wish.

Sorry, I have no idea how these come apart. I'm getting ready to recover my seats so I'm looking for better trim.

Upon research, it appears:

Take a jeweler's screw driver and insert under lever to release tab and pull off - then carefully pry escutcheon cover. There is a screw under the airbag badge too.

I was able to pop mine out in about 3 minutes. Go in from the side with a micro screwdriver on the knob and pry out. The cover then can be popped off.

Thanks!

You will be my hero. I'm waiting on getting my seats recovered until I have trim pieces to have them install.

Again, thanks!
