Default Headrest Adjustment, Finally

Being 6'1" the headrest would push my head forward. The most uncomfortable seat I've been in. Finally took them off today and corrected that problem.

I'm 6'3" and love the headrest its actually perfect IMO, my wife is 5'3" and hates it because it pushes her head forward so I have it raised all the way up on the passenger side. I'm actually surprised you have an issue with it being your height, but happy you found a solution

I'm 5'4" and don't have any issues with the headrest. I've noticed that the '06 mustang seats feel most comfortable when "reclined" and not sitting straight upright.

C'mon and share the fix. If you don't, "Moby" won't be the only preface you'll be called...

So you did bend them. What would you say the angle difference is?
