How to raise rear headrests?

Hi all! I just got a 2020 C63s Cabriolet and am loving it.

The only issue which is vexing me is that I can't figure out how to adjust the rear headrests. I'm beginning to wonder if it's even possible since it's a cabriolet? All I'm trying to do is raise them an inch so I can fit straps around the metal brackets for a seat protector for my dog. But I haven't found anything in the manual to describe how to do it.

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Thanks, but I had read the manual. That shows how to adjust the front headrests, and how to REMOVE the rear headrests.

It doesn't tell me how to adjust the height of the rear headrests.

I'll gladly post this question where it makes more sense...can you tell me where?

I did RTFM. But it doesn't answer my question. I'm simply looking to ;adjust the height of the rear headrests. Not the front, the rear, and I'm not looking to remove the rear headrests.If I'm missing where it says how to adjust the rear headrests please tell me.

If you read it...you'll see that no, it's not in the manual. This describes everything BUT how to adjust the height of the rear headrests.

You have a W205 since you have a 2020 so the correct forum is the W205 forum maybe some there can tell you as it is different than in the older cars https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-c63s-amg-215/

Thanks very much, I had seen W204 and W206 grouped together, but had missed the W205 above them. Appreciate it!
