Default Recaro headrest removal.

I'm wanting to pull mine of to chuck in the washing machine, I can pull the headrest up but it dont remove itself from the seat itself.

How does it actually come out?

(I've posted it in this section as they are all pretty much the same, however it is for the S2)

Any help would be great, Thanks.

Im pretty sure if you have a prod about on the top part of the seat or the side there is a little button under the cloth or go in the top section of the zolda from the front

They have a kinda of split pin that goes through that plastic bit. Try the other leg of the head rest it might have the pin on it to release it.

Ive just looked on a spare seat and if you go to the other end of that plastic tube (that you havent uncovered in the pic) about an inch from the top is the pin that you have to remove.
