Default Head rest bevel removal?

Has anyone ever removed these head rest bezels? Or is it even possible?

It will probably look even worse removed. My guess is the cloth along with the hole are not very becoming to the eye.

I agree - they are trim covering some ugly holes

I broke one on my back seat trying to get headrest off. Didnt realize that the seat has to be folded up first to drop the back down in order to get headrest off. Doh!

[MENTION=120669]whitescrew77[/MENTION] thanks for the info. That's nice to know so when I get my seat covers, I need to fold up the back seat to get headrest off.

I somehow got my headrests off without moving the back rest. I was probably really close to snapping them. It's really hard to get them back in also.

I didn't even know you could move the back rest any.

It is just when the seat bottom is folded up, the seat back sinks down an inch or so, making it easier to get back headrests out.

Interesting, I've heard that but unless I'm crazy my back rest never moved when I folded the seats up. I'm probably just crazy. Lol

I didn't think you would have to take the headrests off to get seat covers on. A learning lesson for me
