    Default Headrest Jammed

    Hey guys, just started putting some seat covers onto my front seats and realised that the previous owner has mixed up the headrests, as in the passenger head rest is on the drivers seat and vice versa. The real problem is the headrest on the passengers seat is jammed in the actual seat. It just wont come out.
    Have u guys got any ideas on getting it out?
    Im about to try some wd-40 down the headrest and see if that works.

    Thanks guys

    just talked to holden and a helpful bloke told me to get it out by inserting a nail into a tiny hole where the headrest goes into and bam it came straight out.

    try something other than a nail. like a small (1.5mm) hex key. a nail with the sharpish end tends to cause damage, not to mention that it will probably be the wrong size for the hole.
