Jeep Wrangler JK Squeaky Rear Seat Headrest

Many have commented and we personally have experienced squeaky rear seat headrests.  After some investigating we figured out the cause of this annoying issue.

The squeak is coming from the springs that make the headrests return to upright when folding the seat up.  The simple cure is some spray lubricant applied to the springs through the slot where the headrest enters the seat.

Apply the lube carefully to avoid overspray on the fabric.
