Question Seat help- this is going to sound silly

I have S3 seats and my headrests are stuck all the way up. There are no buttons or anything I can find to press to release them to go down (looks like they broke off or fell out?) I tried sticking a screwdriver in the slot where it looks like the button used to be but it didn't do anything to release them. I feel stupid asking but I can't figure out how to release them.

Just push it down. No special button or way to operate it other than up and down.

Yup, mine do the same thing. They get rusty and stuck in place. A good whack with your hand is usually enough
