I don't think cavalier headrests are removable... just sunfires are. Sunfires have the typical pontiac headrests

personally cut the hell outta the headrest, so i could pull it off, cause between my fat hands, and the headrest being in the way i couldn't work them off, but down those shafts, in the top of the seat, if you look down, theres a couple of v-notches, and you'll see....i think it was a tiny white rod, that basically locked into the notches, and kept the shaft in the back of the seat so they don't come out of hte top, i just pryed the white rod out of the way with a tiny screwdriver, and pulled the headrest shaft out, on both sides, and voila.

He man awesome write up. I just picked up a seat from the local junkyard for 75 for the pair and it took me about 3 hrs to do. They look great and are about 5" shorter than the stocker. Couldn't have done it or even thought of it with out your help.

I have a 2000 noma with 60/40 front seats in an extended cab. I turned the drivers side seat into a bucket seat pretty easily. Looks great and u cant even tell it was modified. Anyone want photos or any help let me know.

Anyone who has cavy seats or sunfire seats in their truck, could you give me a rough guess as to how much space is between the two seats? Cause this summer I wanna pick up a pair and build a center console. Just want to know some rough dimensions and if my idea is gonna work. Thanks alot guys!!

How in the world do you detach the star bolt on the inner rear of the passenger seat bracket holding it to the floor? Is there a nut under the truck you have to turn or something? I even took a breaker bar to it and nothing. Im thinking of drilling through it and installing a new bolt.
