I take that back. I did some measurements of the ES350 headrest just before sending it back. Based on the gap that the posts slide in, there's about 3cm of adjustment. However, that 3cm doesn't span between what our original headrests are and the Camry headrest, it goes the other way! Yes, the ES350 headrest set to its farthest back position roughly matches where our stock headrests are, and can adjust forwards from there, not back.
So, I guess if you have a very laid back seating position with extra space behind your head, the ES350 headrest could help close that gap. But for those of us preferring more upright seating, it goes the wrong way.
Lastly, I did notice through all this a perceptible weight difference between headrests. The Camry headrest is over a pound heavier than stock for the twins. The ES350 somehow feels lighter, but turns out to weigh even more - maybe another 3oz more, or about double what we have stock. Still, I'll gladly take the 1lb hit for the sake of my neck.
