Default Head Rest Trick

What is the trick to lowering the driver side head rest? I have read the book, stuck my fingers up inside my head rest and cannot figure out how to lower it. What is used to release it so it will lower?

If you mean raise and lower the height of the headrest, it's the seatback recline button. Up raises the headrest and down lowers it (as opposed to forward/backward for the recline function)

Keith Thanks Again

That is not how I read the instructions, but went out and tried and bingo up and down it went.

Time to spend a few hours with your Owner's Manual - lots of other stuff you may not be aware of.

Cut Greg some slack - you still haven't figured out how to open the trunk.
