Before you can start, sit in the left rear seat of your Fiat Punto second series. Begin by rotating the two hooks at the base of the headrest anti-clockwise, using a pair of pliers.

Once you have rotated the two lower hooks, you will have successfully freed the headrest. At this point, simply pull the headrest out of the seat.

By doing this, you will have completed the removal, and you will be free to fit a new headrest for the Fiat Punto or have the removed headrest repaired.
