ok well i didn't know where to put this, so it's going here.

Anyone know if there are any other headrests available for our car?


My wife is now sharing my car, and she has neck problems. Cos of the shape of the lancer headrests they stick forward a bit and makes her neck ache.


So if anyone has any ideas, or knows where i could get some different type of headrests, that'd be sweet.

I doubt it, at least in terms of aftermarket headrests. You may be able to fit the stock ralliart headrests.

 

I don't know of any available, but if the problem is that the headrest is tilting her head forward you could turn it around so the backside is on the front. It'll be tough to get in like that, but I think it might work. Or just take it off altogether.

 

that seems like the cheapest and most obvious idea.

i feel like an idiot for not thinking of that.

cheers mate





update: turned them around. seems to have worked a treat. hopefully its more comfortable for the wife

 

ralliart headrests fit, and look cool

 

got a link to where i could get some?

i will look around on the boards first to see if i can find em

 

reversing them wont work because the legs of the headrest have cut outs that help lock them to a comfortable height. ... try one of those add on pillow things and then remove it when your driving

 

i already turned em around. works fine. i have them set all the way at the bottom anyway

 

BTW, one will have to recline the seats in order to remove the headrests! Long posts in there...

 

^nope. didn't need to do that either

 

^Dang, must have been my previous car then...

 

Do people actually drive with their heads against the headrest? I cant say that I ever had and I find it uncomfortable to sit back like that and drive for any period of time. I know a lot of cars headrest are slightly forward now a days.

Hmmm strange. You would think companies would make them so you can adjust the 'tilt' on them.

 

Many of the premade universal headrest with screens have a tilt option.

 

could always get the neck rest pillows

 

yeh we tried that ,.doesn't help.

this seems to have done the trick. Its much more comfortable for rachel. I think eventually i will get some ralliart headrests or maybe some new seats altogether
