front seat headrest removal???

How do I accomplish this? I would like to make the "new" seat match my existing passenger seat.

I took the passenger seat out of the parts car and swapped it for my sagging driver's seat. No broken springs on the new seat but there were three broken ones on the old seat. Two had already been shored up with coil springs. Used a trick that I read here about stuffing tennis balls into the springs to help shore them up, except I used rubber kids play balls that I got at Target. It worked great, I highly recomend it.
thanks, Andy

Feel for a button on the back of the seat. The button is underneath the fabric. Push on the button at the same time pulling the headrest up to remove it.

Good Luck!
Tom
