It's decidedly "low-tech", you fold them in with your hands, no motors, no switches.

I tried moving them before, but now I see its only the smaller front piece that the ends move forward.
Thanks for asking the question.

I believe you are referring to the headrest "wings" that fold in/out manually?

Yes, the ends of the wings. Does any other part move? Does the whole wing move out?

Nope. But as the top part of the seat can be tilted towards you, the headrest can be comfortably close.

But I agree, I played around with my seats the first day and it was an anti-climax when I realised there was no button for the "wings", which they have on the 7-series!
