Go to this Amazon link and on the picture of the toilet seat scroll left and there is a video of the installation.

Not sure if you seat has a screw fitting or nut type.

On Amazon there are spares you can buy but make sure there are compatible.

I replace a lot of toilet seats, the worst one took over an hour to get off but yours will probably be a lot easier.

Once the seat has been removed by pressing the button, put a small-ish flat ended screwdriver blade under the chrome circular thing then twist it to lever the cover off. That should reveal the head of the screw/bolt that goes down under the toilet and you'll be able to unscrew it or tighten it whilst holding the thing underneath to stop it rotating.

Be prepared to find a foul substance under the cover, that looks like Marmite but is not loved by so many as Marmite is and could be submitted to a laboratory for analysis!
