you mean the headrest or the walls built in the cockpit ?

Uhm both? I thought you meant the 1 piece they have to remove to get the driver in/out, which would conform the description of both options.

yes the headrest is the piece that they remove, but this piece i never saw it has restriction about the width of each of its arms except that the driver must be able to get out of the car without removing it in case of fire or anything so are you referring to the part that is built in the cockpit ? like in this picture where it's written Pepe Jeans ?
