How to Remove Headrests
Mine is a 2013 FX4 but should be the same or similar.

Hope that helps!
How about a 2009 F150? I removed the passenger side headrest when the truck was new because it blocked my view to the right rear. It was no problem, But now I want to remove the driver headrest, but I can't budge it. Pushing in the little plastic buttons does nothing.
Adjustment (and removal) of seat head restraints is covered in the owner's manual.
(owner's manual) Don't have one -OR- would like a digital, searchable desktop document?

Thanks, that's a handy link to have, but all I could find in that owner's manual was "push control button to lower head restraint". I push the button and nothing happens. It's lowered all the way and won't budge up, even when I tried to lever it up with a big tool. Maybe it's somehow jammed in there.
I'm going to the Ford dealer today and they'll probably tell me they are not allowed to remove safety equipment - but they should be able to *adjust it* (at maybe $250!)...and if that doesn't work I'll ask a a private mechanic I know...and if that doesn't work I'm thinking along the lines of a hack saw.
I don't know how I managed to live with that big thing jutting forward like that all these years, but now my back is hurt and it's really bothering me.
