I'm familiar with MB front headrests but apparently the rear cover of the front seat is different from the 126 and 140. I removed the two screws and pulled downwards. No movement. I pried down on the top edge of the rear cover. No movement. I noticed that the upholstery tucks into a channel the full height of the cover. Hmm... that's not going to slide off.

So I just pulled the upholstery hem out of the channel to gain access to the headrest, then used a putty knife to get the hem back in the channel. It worked, but what's the right way to do it?

BTW, this car has leather upholstery.
