they come out. You will need a thin piece of metel to release the tabs that hold them in place.
think something like a hack saw blade but narrower. slide it down the stems of the head rest to trick it into sliding all the way out.

WTF!?! I've never seen that... cool.
How does it open?
IIRC the "according piece" isn't actually connected to either the top or botton, and you maybe able to squeeze it together. I'll check tonight after work.
Does your headrest move vertically (manually) and if so, does it stay in the top position or fall down? My headrest won't stay up.

I think they are supposed to lock in when pulled up, but mine doesn't.
I forgot to look the other night about getting that cover off, I will tonight if remember.
(my memory is good, just too short... hehe)
