Can the rear head rests come out ?

[Ozzy119]

I don't want to force them if they won't but a quick try ended without success.

Just want to create a little more storage capacity when folded down.

Suggest an RTFM - which details how to remove the head rest and fold the rear seats completely flat [emoji41]

[Ozzy119]

thanks - mine doesn't though. That's why I'm asking.

Push the height button, pull headrest up.
There is a hidden tab on the black plastic ring attached to seat...push that in with a small screwdriver, and pull headrest up.

That works on my D4.

But you do need 3 hands to remove them.

I was able to remove mine without a screwdriver. It would be easier with two people but I have large hands and found it relatively easy although slightly awkward. I leave my middle headrest out (kept in the back in case of need for a passenger) all the time for better rear vision.

The middle seat head rest is a pain in the rear view mirror, I agree!!

I took the whole seat out and installed an Fridge, much better now!

I'm damned if I can see the above mentioned hidden tab. Anyone have a picture i can refer to. I'm trying to remove middle rear headrest and having no luck.

Are you talking 2nd row or 3rd row?

Forget that I just realised that by saying middle headrest it has to be 2nd row.

Here you go .... both need to be pressed in to get headrest out.

Here's a close up I took about 10 Minutes ago - shame to waste the effort of doing it :p

Thank you both. Feeling slightly stupid, how obvious it is from the other side !

Came out really easily too. ;)
