I have an '06 with the m-sport seats (not the best bits of kit themselves, sadly) and the headrest position is lousy, no support. What are the options for swapping with earlier/later/other model parts that will provide some fowards/backwards adjustability?

On the F10 loaner I'm driving whilst mine's in the body shop the whole front portion of the headrest can slide for and aft - was anything similar fitted to the E60/61?

I appreciate I'll never have Saab/Volvo levels of comfort, but I'm keen to address this particular gripe!

TIA

Quick fix - buy a MY08, or at least a car with comfort seats (up to MY08).

Thanks; are you saying any post MY'08 headrest, or any pre-MY'08 Comfort Seat headrest, will drop right on?
