I've never looked at my C6 seats, but I'm gonna guess based on having replaced several on my C5 (they kept breaking). The back angle adjustment handle on the C5 came off by taking a flat blade screwdriver and pressing down on a retaining clip on top of the shaft coming out of the seat, and then pulling the handle off. I suspect the seat adjustment button is a friction fit and will just pull off, but I don't really know. On the C5, there was one screw behind the back angle handle once it was removed, and two up front that had to be removed to get the plate off.

You need a small screwdriver to pop the clip off the back of the seat handel
then the plastic up dow button ***** will pop off with ease then remove the phillips screws 3 of them from the plastic then it will come right off
