Abstract

A headrest for a seat of a vehicle includes a body securable to the seat, a side portion adjacent the body, a receiver pivotally attached to the body, a slide attached to the side portion so as to be movable along the receiver between a first position in which the side portion is in a retracted position and a second position in which the side portion is in an extended position, and a friction member on one of the receiver and the slide. A securing mechanism causes the friction member to hold the slide in a selected position relative to the receiver.
