Found this at http://www.flemworld.com/ hope it helps

Removal:
  • Unzip the top seat cover from at the bottom of the top portion of the seat. This will be where it folds when leaning it forward.
  • Reach up with one hand. You will feel the metal shaft. There is a piece of sheet metal that locks it in place.
  • Push the headrest down, wedge your thumb between the headrest shaft and the metal lock, then pull the headrest out.
Re-Installation:
  • Slide the Halo back into the top of the seat.
  • Slide it all the way down.
  • The metal lock will engage once the Halo is inserted all the way down.
