Yeah they are great! I do miss the seats from the GS in the LS. But, I love the LS more and more every day. Have you considered just buying the GS?

Got an email from the dealer about a new program, $3k lease cash on the LS, which is $1k more than there was when I leased mine. Just FYI

The Premium and F Sport headrests are soft like a pillow too u know!!

They're a lot softer than the Toyota counterparts. The headrests on my Camry felt like they're made of bricks!

I could never drive with my head resting on the head restraint. Maybe if I was a passenger. When I drive my head needs to be kept balanced by me using my neck, shoulder and upper back muscles.

I've always been the same way, but with the luxury GS and the articulating backrest pulling the headrest all the way forward, I could rest my head on it and still have it be fully upright. Miss that.

I have a '14 GS350 F-Sport RWD. The driver-side headrest adjusts horizontally as advertised. But not the front passenger-side headrest. Is that expected? Or should I try it "as if you're trying to break it" as someone said above?

Look earlier on this thread for pictures of the 2 types of headrests. Determine which you have. If they are the adjusting variant, I would say give it a try.

Figured it out. All good: passenger-side also has the adjustable headrest

In the 2016 model year, it is really easy to move the headrest. It takes as much effort to move it forward as it takes to move it upwards.
