How to Remove the Headrest from the Volkswagen Passat?

Model: Volkswagen Passat B8, 3G, MK 8 - Years 2014-2023
Part: Seat

To remove the headrest from the Volkswagen Passat, access the part located under the cover at the base of the headrest. Under this circular plastic cover, there will be a lever that needs to be pressed with a thin object like a key. By pressing this lever, you can completely free the headrest and remove it from its seat. Once the old headrest is removed, you can insert the new one, securing it with the appropriate lever at the base.
