So, I bought a set of seat covers yesterday and I'm trying to install them this morning. Surprise, surprise!! The head rests won't come out. I tried pushing the little button and pulling up hard, No good. I look for a little clip or some other retaining device. Nothing.

I did a Google search and a site search and all I found were references to the rear seat. How do I get the front head rests out?:dunno

Hey Joe,

I gotta give credit to dchamberline over at FTE for the solution. I'll post it here for you.


This is what the book shows for seats with the seat belt in the seat back. I assume it'd be the same if you have a different type seat though.

1 Pull the head restraint out to end of travel. Press release button, pull head restraint rod past its stop position.
2 Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, press the release tab on the second head restraint rod guide and pull head restraint free of seat back.
