Default Rear seat/back leather cover removal?

Anubody out there with video/pictures how you remove the leather cover? Removing the seats are pretty easy. But trying to put in an aftermarket seat heater pads and want to make it look good so i would really like to see som pictures.

It's either clips or hog rings, when you remove the seat and look at it you'll see. Most likely hog rings, you need the pliers and new rings to install it, and another type of pliers to cut the current ones off to remove the cover.
They have been using the hog rings to fasten covers on car seats for a long time.
