Hey all. New to the forum but we’ve had our Bronco since January. I’m looking for advice on custom seats or where I could get modifications done. Unfortunately our Outer Banks seats are terrible for my wife’s neck. We bought it for her and she can’t drive it. Needing someone to help! Suggestions on how to buy different trim package seats would also be welcome as the Raptor seats don’t affect her neck at all. Thanks in advance.

Is it the headrests are to far forward? I have heard of folks turning the headrest around.
Plus I think some trim levels have and adjustable headrest.

Yeah we’ve done that already. They’re adjustable but even removing them fully doesn’t resolve it. They’re too firm in the upper back which is pushing her neck forward. In all fairness, she has trouble with chairs and couches for the same reason. Car seats historically she’s been able to adjust enough to resolve it. These are just too firm with the outer banks package.

Thought I’d see if anyone else had any ideas. Thanks!

Not sure but I think until you go to Raptor all seats are the same, excepting the covering….I have a 23OB and actually love the cloth seats (no longer available)…

If you’re thinking something with different lumbar or side support, you might have to go to a specialty brand. I would go to an auto upholstery shop that does seats and see if they have some you can try out (out of vehicle, of course).

Good Luck! It’s not fun being uncomfortable in your own vehicle…
