Grats!
My first mod will be bending the headrests straight on mine too,.....hopefully I will pickup tomorrow.
I did my GF's JK headrests this morning.....
Press the two buttons at the base of the headrests to pull them out. Clamp the headrest down in a vise(I kneeled on them on the ground, and a small board under my knees). Use a large box end wrench, slip the closed end over the rod, and bend them back about an inch or two. It takes a little leverage muscle, but its not hard, and and inch or two make a big difference once you get them back in.

The 6th came and went, no Jeep.
CS says wait till the 9th.
The 9th came and went, no Jeep.
Dealer says soon, but doesn't know when.
CS today says it was unloaded from the train on the 4th.
My JK is stuck in truck transport limbo it seems.
My excitement is being surpassed by my frustration at the lack knowledge, communication, and delivery scheduling.
I'll have my JK any day now, but I'll definitely think twice before special ordering any another vehicle if this experience is anything to go by.

Got it today!! Got my first jeep wave 5 minutes from the dealership, then drove 300km to see the lady. She loves it.
On the way to dinner we passed a Patriot and the lady points and goes "HAHA STUPID PATRIOT!!"
Yup, she's a keeper.
Love everything about it so far, but man the factory sub is WEAKNESS. So far that's the only complaint.
