Default Headrest lower

My headrest is about 2 inches up, and I want it all the way down, and stay there.

I push and it won't move.

How can I get it down?

Not to sound like a dumb question, but did you try the switch in the seat adjustment cluster?

I was having trouble moving my passenger headrest. It didn't appear that the headrests were motorized on the 2007 XJR. Where is the switch?

Don't know about the 07, but 03 and older has a switch that tilts the seat back when it is depressed forward and back. Press the same switch up and down to adjust the headrest.

I scratched my head for a week too until I found this thread. That little button works great, feel like a dork but at least my headrest is down now.
