to get the seat belt holder off you need to clip the push nut off with side cutters and then replace them on the new ones. i just did this all myself

I think I may have just made our lives a hell of a lot easier:

well if you havenet figured it out on how to take the headrest themselves off here you go: (shoulda put this up earlier) the normal lift and lower button bring it all the way up and past it a bit. then with a pick tool on the other post theres a little hole in the plastiv housing around the base. push the pick in and it will pusd the dummie switch.

if thats what you mean by easier. keep in mind i have had much of my car apart myself so if you need any tips on parts coming off let me know and ill see if i took it off or not.

no no no, look what part I have highlighted...

Seat belt guides, 8 bucks... why not just buy new ones and stick em on the SS headrests and avoid potentially ruining your original headrests.

oh i c. your definatly right on that one. do the retainers come with it tho?
if they do then yeah do it but other wise find 12 clips and easily change em over when you please.
