Default Question about the New GS headrests

Hey All,

In the new GS, I heard that the driver side headrests is power and the pass. headrests is non power....

can some one confirm this for me??? Is this true on all trim levels?

Thanks,
Ray

not really power....
if u move the seat back, the headrest raises (it assumes that since u are moving the seat back u are taller), but there is a button you can press to manually move the headrest up and down.

for the passenger, it's manual

That is correct. I think Benzs have this feature as well.

My previous '98 E320 has this feature on both front seats. It always annoyed me and I never fully understood its purpose, especially for the passenger seat. I'm glad the GS300 passenger seat headrest is manual.

Look on the top of your seat near the headrest. You will see what appears to be a small circular indentation in the leather. This is actually the concealed button to adjust the headrest. It's very stealth.
