Am I the only one that thanks the head rests are rather annoying...I have it all the way up but it just sticks in the back of my dome. Im 6ft even so i doubt Im the only one.

Does anyone have any thoughts on a replacement? Never replaced one So this is new territory for me.

I think @steffen707 may have some suggestions about this. I think he has plans for his headrests once he gets his truck. I frankly think the front ones look to be angled way too forward versus how the rear ones look. Interesting picture you posted.

Pull them out and turn'm around. Then they will look just like the rear seat headrests.

I think we figured it's the same rod width and positioning as my Pacifica. I'll try the swap and report back. My Pacifica has adjustable headrests.

JL guys have bent theirs too.

If you move them to the highest position it is far less annoying. Most newer vehicles are like this to prevent whiplash. I'm 6'1 and don't notice it anymore

Have you tried just leaning the seat back one or two more notches to the rear?

Anyone seen an adjustable replacement for this yet, ideally available in factory leather and cloth color options?
