Remove seat back fabric?

Anybody had any experience in removing the drivers seat back fabric?
I`ve got most of it off but i`m stuck at removing the plastic caps that the headrests go into, they are the only things holding the seat fabric on

The plastic tubes have 2 plastic tabs which fit into the steel tubes welded to the seat frame. Push down hard on the fabric around the headrest tubes and you should be able to see the plastic tabs. Push these in with a small screwdriver or similar and the plastic tubes will pull out.
