GTA seats...help!

I am taking my gta seats apart to re-cover them but I cant get the headrest off. I read on another post that there is a release clip that allows them to pull all the way out. If mine has the clip I can't find it. Has anyone else taken these apart. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: GTA seats...help!

Ok I got them off. Guess I was a little quick to ask for help. Anyway FYI, there is a release clip. It is on the front. I was able to jam a flexible strip of metal in there to press it down and pull the headrest assebly out. While we're on the topic though, whats the best way to remove hog rings, lots of them. Also, any advice for separating the seat back from the seat bottom?
