Need help with driver seat

I need to take apart my heated leather driver seat back. Does anyone have a starting point. I just looked at the seat and my best guess for a starting point is to remove the rotary accent from the front side and that will release the top back plastic section and from there I can work downward to release the middle section cover (where the airbag is). Another starting place is where there appears a pryable trim piece that says SRS or air bag or something. I'm just afraid to start trying different things when there's an airbag and heater in the seat.

On a related note, how long does it usually Chilton (or other company) to come out with a repair book for a new car?

Thanks all for all the help. NONE. For future reference and to help others, you can pry off the srs/airbag piece and access a bolt there that allows you to remove the airbag and pull loose the bottom half of the back. This was enough for my needs so I stopped there. The front side of the rotary accent has things that look like fasteners but are only plastic and can not be turned.
