Myosinner on dt hooked me up. with making this possible. Well here is the diy on headrest changes,
First get your self another set of headrests!

remove the originals, There is a small tab press in and extend headrest, after the last catch, keep lifting and pressing till the side is clear of the last catch. Next on the other spindle, there is a hidden release button. press and remove headrest all together. here is a picture of the hidden button.

After the removal, now the fun begins. These are injection molded headrests. which means they were easy too make, pita to take apart and put back together. I had too wash the replacements so this had to be done. First unclip the plasti sleeve.

Now shimmy the cover off one corner at a time a little at a time.

When done with the washing machine, replace the oem's with the replacement covers, again a little at a time. Note: because of the injection molding re insert the plastic then put the cover back on, it's a lot easier imo.

Again one corner at a time. not fun.

When complete another mod well worth the aggrevation!!

Im with you on the 4x4, but something can be said about those trucks and that power.....i would trade in a heartbeat if i found one i could afford. a SRT-10 quad cab that is.
