Default Seat – Headrest Question

I just drove a new 2011 GT and loved the car with one exception. The headrest pushed my head so far forward it made my neck hurt. Looking around the dealership it does not seem to be an issue with just the Mustang but all of the new Fords. Are there any aftermarket solutions? That is a headrest which does not protrude so far forward?

Thanks

Are the headrests removable from the factory seat without looking like an eye sore?

Another thing you can do to reduce how far forward the head rests push your head forward is to raise them up.
There is a flaw with this though: If you are tall, raising the rests won't do a thing.
