Broken foam in headrest of fr85

I had my fr85s apart for cleaning and my 2yo pulled out the headrest foam and snapped it in half. I quickly removed the other one and put both out of reach. Then I tried to call Britax but they are closed today for weather.

Is this one of those cases where you can put it back together with packing tape and call it good?

I have a radian I can use in the mean time.

eta - the part that really hurts... they weren't THAT dirty. I brought them inside because we were trying boosters last week and I figured I may as well give them a good cleaning before I put them back in the van.

Exact same thing happened to me a few weeks ago! (Those 2 year olds can be so destructive, lol!) I called Britax and they sent me a new piece of foam for free. It took about a week to get to me, but I had a spare seat so it wasn't a problem. I didn't even think to ask about taping since I had the spare seat.
