I like the paint idea! I'll have to do that. I'm always guessing where it needs to be so the seat locks back. I too went with the zip tie route. Tried drilling, but my drill wimped out, and it was a disaster. I tried the zip tie in desperation and it worked out better than I expected!

this is great as my wife is 5 foot and I cannot figure out how to get my head rests for pivot forward.
I also cannot get my hand behind the seat to get them to go ahead.

Just did this with drilling holes in the little handles. From there, I put a small zip tie in it along with a paracord, which has a key ring on the other end. Great mod and about the first one I've done to my 2011 SCrew.

The other end (nice of Ford to put that little lip on the front of the headrest to hide all this):



There's quite a bit of room back there. I stowed away a tool box, rain gear, light sticks, flares, and a first aid kit:



Thanks guys! But for this thread, I wouldn't have even known the seats fold down!
Damn. Wish I had thought of doing this when I did mine.

Enough already that this rear back seat in the driver side can be folded down. Just to see somethings what is in there.....
No string attached to the headrest, I don't use it as my storage or something else.

Drilled a hole and used a keyring and paracord.

Then made a bracket with 1 in aluminum bar and quick fist clamps to make a hidden gun rack.

Very useful thread. Unfortunately the area behind my seat is filled with
a subwuffer and an amplifier? Looks like a DuHa is in my future.

Little bit less DIY than some of you guys, but a friend of mine designed this, so I thought I'd give it a go. Install was a piece of cake and I like the OEM look.

That looks like a real cool idea. Looked them up on the internet and ordered one!
