Toilet seat removal

[CoffeeCake]

Hi all, I have tried to remove this toilet seat without success. There are no visible nuts on the underside. Any idea on how to remove this?

Do the rounded silver base plates lever off?

Yes they do, but unsure what mechanism sits underneath.

Where the shaft goes through the chrome on the left, can you hold the black bit tight and then unscrew the white tab??

take a picture from the underside at the rear (of the toilet) there has to be a fixing

How did you manage to remove the seat from the lid?

In my, limited, experience seats with blind hole fittings often simply pull/yank up- they often have a pin which is secured to the fitting in the pan. Once removed, you lift the metal cap and and you have access to the screw which secures it to the pan.

Yes there may be lugs which need to be pulled out firmly, vertically. A bit like a keku fitting

No fixings on the underside, I checked that first.

There are two visible screws which hold the seat to the lid. I managed to unscrew these. Once this is removed you see in the picture what's left with the shafts. However then I tried to move it/pull it without any luck. Will try to yank vertically. Any idea on the make/brand of these? I can't seem to find this design when searching online.

You could cut them off under the bar but above the chrome plate with a hacksaw.

Actually just managed to do it! Brute force by just pulling it at an angle and then vertical.. it was stuck. Thanks everyone!
