Jammy123 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Hi, How high do the headrests go up on a 1991 Defender 90 200Tdi Hardtop County <<<< If any of that makes any difference whatsoever?? I can only get them about 2 inches (4cm) high, they seem stuck solid! Any special way of doing it? Oh and there the original seats! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 on the stem, you should feel 2 spring like ramps, squeeze these into the stem & slide the headrest in/out, it should lock into position, caution as these can hurt if they suddenly come out while your pulling them from above. not sure of the full range of adjustment. mine are showing about 40mm of stem above the seat back, puts the top of the headrest just below the top of my ears & inline with my eyes. hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 the clips are difficult to get at, just been out to my 110 & I can't feel the clips either, but I know they are there. I can't find a clear enough diagram to show where on the stem the clips are fitted, but it's about 1/2 to 1 inch from the bottom of the stem. there's definitly something stopping them being pulled out.

Jammy123 Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 Ah right. How can you get to them then?!?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave K Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Just remember to get your face out of the way, when you find the release! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Ah right. How can you get to them then?!?!? Probably have to undo the backrest trim so you can get your hands upto the headrest stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammy123 Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 Bloody hell! This seems like a most serious design flaw!! Fancy having to take the seat apart to move the headrest up, what sort of person designed that!! What a nightmare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I'm not sure if it's meant to be moveable, can't find anything in the owners handbook or workshop manual about adjusting the headrests. but they do come out as I've had mine out of the seatbacks sometime ago.
