I can't seem to get my headrest to move. I can get the edges to pull forward, but not the middle. The owners manual suggests there are 4 stages that you can pull forward, but the center of mine don't seem to move. Am I not pulling hard enough?

Definitely love that HUSKERnKS For me, it becomes very useful when hauling in some groceries and especially "protecting" certain items, like a loaf of bread, from getting smashed into a square! lol.

@popping, check the top portion of your trunk (where the light is) and you'll see this:



Hope this helps,

no, it works on bluetooth mode and app mode but you don't have to install any apps on the car. You might have to install chromecast on your phone - maybe.

then you can use the steering wheels to scroll back or forth, the youtube video. You will get only sound. You'll have to have a playlist though. You can create a playlist for yourself on youtube.

I can change songs in Spotify with the steering wheel controls.

Can't do that in the 2012 Benz GL. Weak!

I like how when I turn the car off the steering wheel goes up, the seat slides back, the lumbar and side bolstering deflates to make exiting the car easier. And then when I turn the car back on or put the seat belt on it goes back to the same position, including the bolstering and lumbar.

Changing the pictures for the startup sequence and the "display off" nav functions. I have, eh, artful nudes on both, everyone always gets a kick out of them.

Here's a through back tasteful album cover that makes a good startup photo.

Although I think that's a Ferrari, not a Lexus.

You two win the internet for the day! (or for 6-13-15 at least) I hated how far back my headrests were too; they were all the way back. Thank you x1000!
