I have a pair of LeMans GTS seats in my 914. I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!! except for the headrest. While it is great from street driving its is annoying as hell for me when I AX. With my helmet on over my fat head, the back of the helmet hits the headrest and pushes my head forward. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

What I want to do is remove the headrest for AXing and put it in for street driving. I can raise it all the way up, but can not get it to come out. Is there a trick to that or can't you remove it?

Thanks

Is there some kind of tab in there you need to press down in to the tube so it can slide out?

Honestly I have never seen the Leman GTS seats in person but would like to own a pair of them.

I do remember seeing a picture of a Lemans seat with the head rest not attached so I am sure there has to be some kind of way...

By the way, can you post some pictures of your seats and the interior. I would love to see them and how they look in the car. Thank you !!

There is nothing that I can see OR feel that will totally release the headrest.

Here are some pictures of when I put the drivers seat in and when I redid the carpet and added a passenger seat.
