[s-cars] rear headrest needed

[LL - NY]

Having owned both open and closed headrest Audi's, I actually have to admit
the solids are more comfortable and feel likely to be more supportive in a
rear collision. So I'd rather trade vision for the solids...and run without
the rears when the rear seat is empty. I do the same with the Saabaru. Hate
the "tunnel vision" I get with the rear headrests in place.
