2010 Acura TL--Driver's Lumbar Support Failure (Second Time)

The inflatable lumbar support bladder failed while the car was under warranty, which Acura replaced. However, it has failed again. The motor/pump still works, but the bladder will no longer inflate. At the time of the first replacement, the Acura service technician told me that the bladder is accessible from the seat back by removing the cover. Can anyone provide instructions for removing the driver's seat back cover? It doesn't want to pull away from the seat and I don't want to risk breaking any of the tabs/clips.
Thanks a lot!

Actually the clips usually break when you try to remove that. They are pretty inexpensive to replace though. Find a trim pad remover... the kitchen is a great place to find something lol, like wooden flat utensils... Mine too broke down once, replaced it myself, broke down again, didn't bother to replace again...

Because of the airbags, disconnect the battery first before you attempt anything.
