I read up a few things on various forums regarding this job. All said that the seat needed to be removed in order to get to the torx screws holding the seat side panel trim on. This is nonsense, simply lift the seat to its maximum height and the screws are all easy to get to. The job took maybe 15 minutes start to finish, except for the rear most screw which was awkward to get to, the screw kept falling off before I could get it in the hole. Ended up superglue-ing it to the torx bit then it was easy to break the bond to remove the tool once the screw was done up.
It's good to be able to adjust my seat now! Only thing is that the bottom-rear-down switch isn't great but being a big guy its always fully down anyway. It also looks so much better than the broken missing switch!
