Abstract: A motor vehicle is provided with a passenger cell having an A-pillar, which is arranged laterally of a windshield of the vehicle, and includes, but is not limited to bracing connected with the A-pillar, and the A-pillar and the bracing are connected and spaced from each other with a sidewall part of the passenger cell, and on a side facing the passenger interior a covering part is arranged which is connected with the A-pillar. An airbag is provided within the A-pillar and mounted between the A-pillar and the covering part and extends forward to beyond the contact region of the bracing on the A-pillar. The covering part covers the airbag, and with the bracing a further covering part is connected and the two covering parts are detachably connected with each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to an actuating apparatus for a headrest, the holder of which is movably mounted in a receptacle within a vehicle seat back that can be folded down, with a traction device that acts on the holder and serves to pull the headrest back into a retracted position. Preferably, a headrest is attached to such a seat back by a mechanical actuating apparatus that is of simple construction and enables the headrest to be completely retracted from any pre-adjusted position when the seat back is folded down, and when the seat back is raised upright returns the headrest to the original, pre-adjusted position.
