Headrests

How do you REMOVE the headrest from an '05 regular cab with 40/20/40 cloth seats?

that was going to be my question so that you could turn them around for better comfort.

Headrests

I want the tailor to make some custom "throws" to protect the seats during everyday use. I just discovered how to remove the headrests but now the seatbelt may be a problem. To remove the headrest: There are two plastic rings that each post of the headrest slides threw. These "rings" are slightly larger than a quarter & about 3/8" thick. The left "ring" has a tab that protrudes upward from the inboard side of the ring. Press this tab to adjust the height of the headrest. The right ring has a little bit different looking tab on the outboard side of the ring. After adjusting the headrest to max height, depress both tabs & exert slight pressure upward on the headrest.

Custom "Throws" are available, I seen them in my Stylinconcepts catalog.
