Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016

Today's steps will show us how to disassemble and remove the front headrest of the Opel Astra; the operation also applies to all other headrests of the seats. So let's get on board the car and start rotating the plastic clips we find on the base of the headrest; then we remove the rear padding of the front seat and disconnect the headrest cable, as shown in the video. At this point, we slide and remove the headrest upwards, replacing it if necessary with a new one; we apply the reverse process for reassembly!
