When I installed seat covers on cars like yours, I would take a hacksaw blade and slide it down the shaft of the headrests to trip the catch which is down about 8 inches or so.Pull the headrest up, slide blade as far down as possible, push down headrest with blade and then pull up.This only works on flat support headrests but they all release like this if there is no visible release lever. You might have to fashion a tool if you have round headrest supports.

put the headrest all the way up, get a piece of skinny, thin metal strip(like a slim jim) and push it down the headrest shaft(the front side) and as your pushing the metal(slim jim) down, push the headrest down at the same time. this will release the locking mechanism on the headrest.

I had the same problem when try to get my seat covers on. What you have to do is lift up the head rest as far as you can then get something like a clothes hanger and stick it in that groove in the metal part under the head rest. Then you push the headrest all the way down. So then you pull it back up,take out the hanger, and it should come off.

The clips that hold them in are fitted into the plastic tubes that are UNDER the outer seat covering trim.

You need to undo the hog rings on the base of the backrest, peel up the fabric, then remove the circlip like pins in the top of the headrest tubes.

If you reef at the headrest you'll either bust off the retainers, or wreck the top of the seat frame.

The headrest on a 2008 F-150 can be removed to install seat covers by first pushing the headrest to one side or the other. Then, lift straight up on the headrest.

Are the headrests on your 1988 Volvo 245 removable?

If you will carefully press in on the backside of the material of the front seat back following a straight line downward from the headrest post you will come to a tab at the end of the post. Raise the headrest to the upmost position, press with your thumb on the material and against the tab while putting just a small amount of upward pressure on the headrest and the tab will release the post. You have to do this to both posts of the headrests to remove them from the front seats. I have an 89 240 and the headrests do come off, as do all 240 wagons.
