The front nonadjustable front headrests are at an odd angle and too far forward for my liking. In the winter I usually wear a felt hat with a full 2 1/2" brim which the headrest would knock off. I rotated the drivers headrest 180 degrees and problem solved.

It's that easy. Looks like it was meant to be that way.

Be careful, they are designed that way to keep you from getting whiplash in an accident.

Any chance you could post a few more photos from different angles of the headrests flipped?

I could be wrong, but I read somewhere that the Ford Maverick headrests are a direct fit for our rangers. And they're adjustable?
