Default Anyone else pull the rear headrests?

I've got a two door and couldn't stand having just that little square open in the back between the headrests when I'd look in the mirror. Today at work on my break I removed them and left them behind the rear seat. Much nicer being able to see completely across the top of the back seat now and I'm more comfortable backing up without the blind spots. It still looks wrong to me without them there but i like it better. I'll put them back in place if I need the space. Anyone else remove them for visibility reasons?

Was my first mod after about 3 hours of driving the first day. I hated not being able to see behind me.

One left the 2nd day I owed it and the other has been out ever since my youngest moved to a forward facing carseat and I could take out the headrest mirror I had on there so I could keep an eye on him. I saw one of them in the basement the other day, not sure where the other one is.

Pulled the headrests immediately, now the seat is out as well. I would put them back on if someone was going to be riding back there.
