2014 BMW X5 F15 Headrest removal

[montanagrl]

I'm trying to put seat covers in my F15 and cannot remove the headrest. I removed the black cover that is around the post of the headrest and removed the clip but the darn thing won't budge. It has the comfort seats I believe. Is there a trick? It appears to be stuck. Should I remove the back of the seat? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure if this helps, but just in case: https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/f...ort/1VnXT4TRkd

You have to remove the seat back plastic, and the headrest is clipped into place on the motor that moves it. Don't forget to unplug the wiring.
