Has anyone found any upgraded seat backs that have a headrest section that moves with headrest adjustments? I know Dinmann has the full carbon back but the headrest doesn't adjust. There's also the replacement of just the headrest portion to carbon, but then the rest of the seat back is still plastic. Anything else out there or coming down the production pipeline?

Why would you want that piece to move with the headrest?
Stock ones don't and I think it'll be quite a challenge to make that modification, not to mention the possibility of rattles induced from the loose moving part.

The stock ones don't move with the headrest? That is news to me I thought they did and that's why they're 2 pieces. Thanks for the info

The stock backs do not move. They do however have a channel mechanism on the rear side which allows the headrest to move smoothly while being held tightly up against it. The Dinmann backs just have nothing, which works fine but not as nice as the oem setup.

I’m pretty sure the headrest can move up and down with the standard seats.
They do move in my G82 and F97.

Or do you want the whole back rest to move up and down?

Ahh I see so when you move the headrest up in the G80, the back piece doesn't move up with it then. That's good to know!

I had originally thought that the plastic back portion of the headrest moved as well but now I'm learning otherwise so sorry for my shitpost lol. However, now I am way more into getting the Dinmann or m performance seat backs knowing this info so thanks everyone!

The seat back does not move. It’s one piece.
