Headrest won’t come out

I know guys... seems like a pansie question compared to all the high tech issues here. But, I can’t get the rear center headrest on my F-350 out. Mashed the little button and pulled like hell but it won’t budge .. any ideas out there before I tear it up?

Not sure if it will do anything, but when you push the button, try pushing down on the headrest first before pulling up.

Get mad, yank and repair what you break.

That is how I fix my truck.

Sawzall?

Sarge, the saws all would solve the prob. A little rough on the leather perhaps. Tonka, that’s usually my approach but maybe I just haven’t been mad enough. I’ll probably try Seville’s approach next. Stay tuned...

What year is the truck? On my 13 it was a real bitch to get out. IIRC there are tabs that need depressed on both posts. It took both my wife and I to get the front and rear center headrests out on mine. I jammed the buttons in and she yanked the headrest out.
