How do you remove the front headrest from your car? Let's see how to remove the headrest from above the BMW seat. Open the door and enter the back of the car (rear passenger seat), press the button located under the left rail of the front headrest, while simultaneously using a plastic trim tool to press in the slot on the right side of the rail.

Raise the headrest until you can slide it out of the front seat back. To install the front headrest, simply insert it into the holes and push it down (keep the release button pressed).
