How do you tighten the seat nets?

I'm having the nets and the trim piece removed and having the plastic back custom painted to match the outside paint of the car. I think it will compliment my custom two tone interior nicely

Ok fellas,
Was going to take care of this little job on my SC this afternoon, but ran into a problem.
I got the back of the seat off fine, but I did not have screws holding the net trim ring to the seat back, rather these little metal clips. I tried to get one of the clips off, but feared breaking off the plastic post so I stopped. My car is a 1995. Any ideas on why I have these rather than screws? Any reccomendations on how to remove them?

I simply grabbed both sides with my needle nose pliers and pulled straight up. If they were down to where I couldn't get a grip I pryed them up a little with a small flathead screwdriver. I found that pushing them back on with a small socket and a nut driver worked pretty well.

That's right guys. Sorry I said screws before, I forgot it was those things. I just used a flathead screwdriver and poped them off. I pushed them back down with the screwdriver as well. This is all pretty easy to do.
Good Luck!

The needle nose plier approach worked well for getting them off, and the use of a nutdriver to press them back on was a great tip.
