Default How to remove kneee pads?

I am in the process of wrapping some of the interior in black leather with red stitching wanted to wrap the knee pads in my 04.5 anyone know how to get them off they dont just pry off and i cant see any bolts holding it on?
Have seen some people post interior stuff and have customized kneepads so someone got them off!
Searched couldnt find anything on how to take them off, if its allready on here somewhere please direct me thanks.

can you actually buy that stuff? it must be outrageously expensive like 500$ a yard i would definitaly reccomend practice making everything first in some cheaper fabric then finalize on your expensive fabrics!
post pics when you do! i will be doing a diy post on this when i finish my interior.

alcantara is 500/yd? if so this is ridiculous. but if you got the $$$ i suppose its all in another day of spending!
