Seat back replacement

Strange question... I've seen a thread about removing the stopping pins on the head restraint on the front seats, and it need the back of the front seat to be removed.

That being the case, is it therefore easy to replace the seat backs with items that have the storage nets in them?

Cheers
Chas

If you just want to lower the headrest you don't need to remove the seat backs but if you want to remove the pins then yes.

.....and yes it is easy to remove seat backs & replace with storage net ones. Remove the 2 pin type clips from the base of backrest and wiggle and turn it semi sideways and it comes off.
