Best Answer

The headrest has metal tubes that go down into the seat back, they go through plastic clips that have a button that you can press. If you can feel for the button by pressing on the back of the seat back with your thumb. This requires alot of effort and pressure. If you feel it and can push the button, pull up on the headrest at the same time. You can pnly do one side at a time. However, if you are going to recover the seats anyway... just cut the back of the seat back open about 2 inches directly below where the bottom of the headrest goes into the seat, look inside for the white plastic clips, press the button, etc.
