Also, regarding the butterfly headrests, mind don't move whatsover at least not as far as I can tell. I removed them from the seat and pulled and pushed and was afraid I was going to destroy it after reading that they were adjustable. And to be clear, the part that you rest your head on appears to be floating but I cannot get it to move forward or backward.
Interesting, I wasn't too positive about the butterfly part. Does it not manually adjust forward or backward at all? I wonder if they got rid of that feature in lieu of the active whiplash protection. It's definitely possible to have both. I know Mercedes (at least back in the day) had the same floating headrest design that was manually adjustable forward and back and still featured the active whiplash protection.

I guess the workaround is that you can adjust the upper half of the seat (ala BMW) to get the headrest to meet the back of your head?

I don't have that Pelvic Support button but I believe so - i'd imagine that the standard Lumbar support would just move in/out closer to your body and then the Pelvic Support moves similarly but more in an up/angled motion (hence the 4-way lumbar support).

Only thread I found on this for the 4GS: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...oes-it-do.html

Red Arrow = Lumbar (available on all 4GS models)
Green Arrow = Pelvic Support (available on Lux pkg and F-Sport Driver seats):

I don't think my FSport has the pelvic support. Only 2 lumbars, thigh, and side bolsters.
