xsuperjoex,
Do you know if the front headrest are set up the same way. I assume that they are!!! I'm going to try to see if my installer can fit them into the front headrest. If not, I'm gonna have to get some new ones.

Also, I have already posted this on a new thread, but do any of you guys know if an RX300's front headrest will fit in the front of a GS400???

I think the RX300 front headrest are bigger in width, but if you guys can help, that would be great.

Thanks

I dont' think they, are ask Mean Gene, he put his in the front ones...I think there is plastic inside that you have to cut not metal.. I'm really not sure sorry.

Unhappy This is very dangerous....

Not to be a party pooper, but interchanging the headrests from rear to front is very dangerous in case of an accident. I work for a major seat supplier and deal with headrests everyday. Lexus probably out that "elbow" in the headrest on the front to compenstate for an FMVSS, Toyota, or ECE regulation. There are certain defelction requirements a seat must meet at the headrest. I know you are just out to customize your car and make it unique, but it I just wanted to warn you.
Thanks
