To remove a Tesla back headrest, based on the provided reference, you will typically lift it slightly to disengage it, locate a clip by pulling down the surrounding fabric, pull the clip out, and then push or pull the headrest up further to complete the removal.
Detailed Steps for Removing a Tesla Back Headrest
The process for removing a rear headrest in a Tesla, as demonstrated in the reference focusing on a Model 3, involves actions on both headrest posts. Follow these steps carefully:
- Initial Lift: Gently pull the headrest up slightly until you feel it disengage from its initial position or locking mechanism.
- Repeat on Other Side: Perform the same slight pull-up action on the other side of the headrest.
- Access the Clip: Pull the fabric down near one of the headrest posts to expose the underlying mechanism.
- Release the Clip: Locate the little gray clip and pull it out. This clip is a key part of the retention system.
- Final Removal: With the clip released, push the headrest up slightly (or pull it upwards) to fully remove it from the seat back.
This method allows for temporary removal of the headrests, which can be useful for specific tasks like fitting car seats or improving rear visibility when not carrying passengers.
