Upholstery Tips How to Remove Mercedes C250 Headrest

[@pablogitli9543]

I watched 6 videos on how to remove the headrest. This is the only video that captures how to push the retaining clip. Well done.

If your W204/C Class doesn’t have powered headrest and are manual, there is a much easier way to remove them because you don’t need to unplug the yellow connector because manual headrests don’t have that power cord. Take an aluminum soda can and cut out a rectangle about 1 inch wide by 3 inches long. That’s just rough dimensions, you can trim it down a little if need be but just be careful because the aluminum edges will be sharp. The headrest pole has notches cut in it that catches to raise and lower it into position. Slide the aluminum shim around the headrest pole that has the notches, and this will block the notches so the catch button won’t lock it into place. It takes a couple of tries to get the aluminum shim you made into position, but keep trying and you’ll get it. I’ve done it a few times and I can now get both headrests off in less than 5 minutes. Hope this tip helps, because it’s a lot easier and faster than taking the seat back off. Just remember that my way only works on non powered headrests. If you can adjust your headrests with an electric switch, you’ll need to do it like he did.

Knowing about the clip was SO helpful and it worked perfectly for me. Thank you!

Amazing! I was quoted by my garage 150 euros to put in two sheep skin seat inserts on the front seats. After watching your video, I did it myself and took my wife out for dinner afterwards with the money saved. 🎉🎉🎉

Hi I just purchased a 2010 Mercedes E350 was wanting to change out the headrest for some vented headrest. How compatible are they and is it as easy as you show on your video. Thank you!

[@kattick87]

Thank you for sharing this. I am sure you would have saved hundred of dollars for many. I would also like to point out that the mechanism that is explained in the video is the same in the GLA 250 (year 2020) model.

Very informative, thanks!

[@BC2FITTY]

Is there any way to lock the post in one place , cause my kids have a habit of kicking the headrest all the way up and I want to be able to just lock it in one spot ?

[@mecaupholsterytips]

If it is electrical you can move all the way down.. and it will lock but if it's manually you have to remove the real chill and put a zip tight hold them it

[@BC2FITTY]

@@mecaupholsterytips thanks for the quick response , I purchased some cotter pins to see if I could use them but haven’t had the chance to get to it but if those don’t work then I’ll try the zipties thanks again !

Can I start the engine and drive the car without the headrest? It will not throw the airbag on?

[@mecaupholsterytips]

You can start but headrest airbags my activate. That mean the you hast to pay to reset the sensor
