Head rests on a T27 are not designed to be removed ( easily anyway ) as the car is fitted with active headrests which move forwards in the event of a rear impact, there are cables passing up through the post attached to an actuator inside the lower back rest. To remove the headrest you must first unclip the cables from the actuator in the seat.
