Hi Again Everyone,
Ed, I completely agree about the safety issue with the headrest and was thinking lots about it today....and had a brainwave! I have tried turning the headrest around etc but today decided to try using the headrests from my husband's car (we both drive Hondas, his is a CR-V and mine is a Pilot) - and it WORKED!! His headrests are much thinner and smaller and aren't as "puffy" or rounded as mine and they fit perfectly in the Pilot's headrest slots. So my advice to others with the same problem is to maybe try a less expensive version of the same car company and see if their headrest doesn't push your head forward! VOILA!
Also, about not being able to reach the car door to close it - I initially had a knotted tie around the armrest to pull the door in but now find I don't need it.
Thanks for the thread, Ed - now that the headrest situation is better, maybe my adaptive level is more like a solid 8??
