I have a new 2006 LS 430. The head rest hits my head in just the
slightly wrong position so that it keeps it too far forward and I get a
sore neck after a couple of days trip. The neck leads to headaches. The
restraint can not be tipped back any farther. Is there any way that I
can remove the head restraint on long trips? Dealer says it can not be
removed, of course.

Thanks.

AFAIK, the power head restraints are not easily removable and would require
disassembly of the seat back, and I would not recommend removing them even
if they were due to the protection they provide in rear end collisions.

I've found the same discomfort from the head restraints in our Sequoia.
Perhaps you can find an auto upholstery shop that can remove some of the
padding from the front of the head restraint so that your head can tilt back
to a more comfortable position?

That is a usefull idea - think I will go down to bucket stitch and see
what they have to say about it! Thanks.
