ABSTRACT:
A vehicle headrest support includes a tubular body having an elongated slot extending through the sidewall. The slot is dimensioned to permit the support to snap onto the support rod of a headrest attached to a vehicle seat. An upper surface of the support is inclined in a forward direction to tilt the headrest forward toward the occupant's head. A lower end is formed with a substantially flat surface to engage the vehicle seat. The support is particularly suitable as an aftermarket device for attaching to the support rod of an existing vehicle headrest and seat. The support attaches to the support rod of the headrest to prevent pivotal movement of the headrest with respect to the support rod and to prevent the headrest from collapsing toward the vehicle seat upon impact of the occupant's head during a rear end collision.
