Headrest

[Joefuze]

Anyone notice the headrest goes forward and back not just up and down. Just figured this out last night. It's little details like this that make this car special. I've had the car for a week now and I'm in heaven.

As the weeks go by you will find even more little things that makes this car so awesome. Congrats on your new ride... to the forum. This is a great site with people who are willing to share information and help each other out.

What's the neat little trick with the wipers ?

Thanks

Turn ignition on or acc (but don't start), hold the wiper stalk up for a few seconds. Wipers will stand up and allow you to change blades. Pretty sure you can also turn off the ignition and leave them up for snow/ice avoidance.

Please explain how to move them forward and back. I can't figure it out.

It only works in 1 direction - you have to pull it forward. It will then click through a few forward "stops" for the different position detents. If you move it all the way forward, it will drop back to the rear most position when you let go (and then you can pull it forward to where you want it again).

Here you go...

Very cool - I was wondering about this and, as you indicated, it's in the manual:

Also, I tried it and can confirm that you can then keep them in the service/up position (and pulled away from the windshield - but need to manually do that step) and lock the car to avoid them getting "iced over". They don't return to the down position until you flick the wiper control stalk up again or start the car - so make sure to lay the wiper blades back down in contact with the windhield before getting back in the car.
