So, my kid decided to use the map pocket on the back of the front seat for a foot rest and the plastic piece on the side of the pocket snapped. does anyone know how to replace it and where to get a replacement part. I looked on real OEM and cannot find the single piece.

Looks like the part is the Backrest Upholstery. Single piece does not appear to be available.

Check the part group 52 10 for your vehicle year and model.

Thanks, that is what I thought. I did get the piece off, remove the broken plastic rivets, and replace it with a bolt and nut.

I used a flat head screw driver on the top metal snaps (one left and one right). Once those are free, the bottom two just slide up with the back. be careful as it is just fiberglass. Also I do not have the sport seats.
