New 330XI headrests suck

The new headrests are thicker by about 2" than the past ones and are uncomfortable (they don't allow your head back far enough to be at a neutral angle). These headrests are not the same as the ones on the vehicle I test drove in April, but are now appearing on all new vehicles being delivered. I have compared notes with another new 330XI owner who picked his car up just last week. Both of our wives hate these headrests. So far, I have not gotten any info back from dealership on why these have changed or how we can get them "fixed". From other threads, these new headrests may be a redesign to improve rear collision crash test ratings but thats just a guess on my part. Any insights on this out there? I have attached a picture of the new headrest - and you can see that it has an extra seam in it not found in most other pictures posted.
