Ok I have tried for around an hour I have the rear cover of the seat unzipped so I can see and feel inside and cannot feel and button or release clip I have one side moving but the side with the seat belt clip is solid any ideas?

I did see something on hear about pressing with a screw driver at the shoulder of the seat I have tried with two of us on it one holding the seat and pulling upon the head rest and the other pressing with the screw driver:banghead:

I've been taking my off recently to put new leather covers on, and tried all the above guide without luck, and eventually figured it out.

 

Here's my interpretation of the procedure, you can do one side then the other, first try and feel the rod that goes into the the back rest, near the outside edge of the hole where the rod goes in, you'll be able to just feel a button, at the same time depress the button with one hand and use your other hand to pull up the head rest on the side you are depressing, you should be able to feel it come up and then do the other side and voila finally the bugger comes off lol. Hope it helps mate!
