Has anybody else removed the head rests from the back seat? It makes a big difference and the seats are easier to put down too.

On day one, removed all three rear headrests! Really helps with rear visibility.

Certainly does. I removed them too.

LOL. As soon as I got home, out they came

my view from the driver's seat when I test drove one last week, I would remove the centre headrest if I purchased one. I would not remove the two outer headrest as they don't improve vision much and they are readily available if I take any passengers in the rear.

Today I folded the rear seats down because I needed to take my dogs to the vet. I'm thinking I'll leave the seats down. I rarely have a backseat passenger and seeing out is much easier.

That is a good compromise, the restraints are there when needed.

Personally I do not have any issues with the visibility👍

 

[Orev]

I can see out the rear just fine. No issues with visibility

 

[Zenthar]

I removed only the center headrest, the side ones wouldn't add much.

I just removed the center headrest as well. I occasionally have more than one passenger and I want them to have a headrest, so I won't remove the other two. But I would rarely ever have 3 people in the back, so the middle headrest is in storage in the garage.

Done that too no central rear headrest needed and indeed, I have proper visibility now

I resolved this by buying a bigger rear view mirror.

I can see the whole complete rear window with the regular mirror, so don't see how a wider angle rear view mirror would help unless you want to see more in the back seat side areas.

You can not see the entire rear glass in the rear view mirror, with the back seat head restraints in the normal position.

That C - Pillar is a killer in terms of visibility!

 

[Benno93]

We removed the centre headrest as well and that's all we need. Vision is fine thru the rear. I'm also concerned that if we allowed a rear seat passenger in and we had removed the headrest that we would be held liable if a neck injury occurred.

Center headrest gone here also. First thing I did when I got the car home, tremendous improvement in visibility. The rear seat isn't wide enough for 3 adults anyway.

Took delivery of my car on Friday and the first thing I did was remove the center headrest as well. Much better!
