I'd guess they are held on by one time use clips. RealOEM shows what looks like two straps at the bottom, two tab clips at the top, and sevral other smaller clips in the middle.
Ill just pull then. If they brake, who cares. I'm getting the seats covered in suede and I plan on deleting them and the headrests. i MIGHT leave the holes for the headrests on, just incase I ever want to put them back on, but I doubt it. I like it better without them

WOW!, really, no headrest? You better not get in an accident. Front collision, you will be looking at some serious whiplash at the minimum. Rear ended, you'll be lucky to make it away without a neck fracture if there is any significant speed involved.

Why do I have to press 1 for english?
Jesus is coming. Look busy.
just pull on the top...if you got enough HP, when you floor the car, the Gforces push your back against the seat so hard, the back of the seat pops loose....thats what mine did.

I haven't taken my seat backs off, but I would think you'd want the extra support to protect the guts of the airbag system that's in the seats.
Also, don't forget to make sure they take into consideration the airbags in the seats...
Suede "wears" in rather interesting patterns, so keep in mind that unless you have a front seat passenger on a regular basis, your driver seat will look worn much more quickly.

Its automobile suede made for use on seats for everyday use.
While I agree it wears faster, I'm going to put a seat cover on it for just everyday driving. When I start going to shows, etc, ill take them off those days.

you have to take out the handles on each side, then they will snap right out. and if you like the look with out the headrests why dont you just have them wrap the fabric over them and it will still look as if there are none
so did i just pull out the U-shaped plastic piece? while unloading a cooler from the backseat, it snagged the net at the back of the driver's seat and when i yanked the cooler out, the small metal rod that the net weaves into went out of the U-shaped plastic piece. still trying to figure out how to put it back without scratching anything
