Front Head Restraint Guide Sleeve: Installation

  1. NOTE: Always install new head restraint guide sleeves. Difficult adjustment of the head restraint may occur. Failure to follow these instructions may result in component failure.
    NOTE: The head restraint guide sleeves are not interchangeable. Failure to install the correct head restraint guide sleeves at the correct position may result in component failure.

    Allow the head restraint guide sleeve to slide freely through the backrest foam pad and backrest trim cover, twist the head restraint guide sleeve while pushing it into the backrest frame hole as far as it will go, using hand pressure. By hand, press the head restraint guide sleeve downward into the backrest.
