An open style head restraint includes a closeout for providing structural integrity and safety. For providing maximum visibility, the closeout is preferably made of see-through material, for example, cellular material, such as mesh or net material, or non-cellular material, such as clear and semi-transparent plastic material, or the like. The open style head restraint is formed by affixing the closeout between the armatures and/or a top or bottom cross member. Next, a sealing material is applied between the closeout and the mold assembly to prevent the foam filler from seeping onto the closeout. Then, a release-mold coat, an in-coat, and a skin coat can be applied to the mold halves. Next, the closeout is properly positioned in the mold assembly and the armatures are secured. The foam filler is then injected while the mold assembly is in the closed position. Then, the foam filler is allowed to cure. After a sufficient period of time, the completed open style head restraint with closeout can be removed from the mold assembly.
