ummm... not sure if im talking about something totally different here... but the head rest should just pop out??

My mates have put my head rests in backwards before and they just pop back out as normal?

If you put a headrest in backwards the clip shouldn't grab in the first place if i thinking correctly about how the mechanism works.

head rest isn't poping out its locked in there, the last groove is straight thats why it doesn't pop out. thats why u have that little button on the side to release it so it pops out but cos its on back to front the button thats meant to release isn't on the same side hole.

DO NOT PULL ON THE HEADREST

All you need to do is take a look athe the plastic bits on the seat that the poles go into, there will be a small hole for a paperclip, unfold your paperclip inset it into the hole and it will release.
