it will give the people in the back 'more room' and i think it would look better. if there are people in the back and i turn to talk to them or something its kind of in the way...

Well, I thought that they just pulled out Also, I would think twice about removing them for looks. I think it will look pretty sh*tty without headrests. Just my .02.

i have removed mine before, you need to unzip the back of the seat, and the headrests slides in a track, it has some sort of tab in it so that you cant just slide them out, i wedged a screw driver in there and managed to get them out
