There are many threads about the tilt of the headrests.

Some people are happy with the headrests the way they are. Other people are not.

Personally, I purchased a black leather headrest from a previous generation Honda Accord on Ebay. (I imagine older TL would work too). It slides right in and isn't tilted forward nearly as much. The poles are the same size and width apart.

Yes...it does do that, but it won't stay. I don't have a problem with them because I lean my seat back some, but I have had passengers complain when they have the seat more upright.

That's funny, I think that it's too far back. When I'm on the freeway I like to rest my head on the headrest. Unfortunately my head bends back uncomfortably in this car when I do. I miss my BMWer's nice adjustable headrests.

the rear ones can be folded and once i did it i got the check airback message for few seconds and it went off , could it be due to the fact that i touched any sensor in folding them ?
