How to Remove the Headrest from a Škoda Octavia

Model: Skoda Octavia MK 3, 5E - Years 2012-2019
Part: Seat

To remove the headrest from a Škoda Octavia, use a tool to lever off the circular plastic cover located at the base of the two headrest supports. Once this cover is lifted, press the side buttons next to the headrest supports. This will allow you to pull the headrest upwards and remove it from its housing. You can then insert the new headrest, repositioning the circular covers at the base of the supports.
