I am in need of a car seat with adequate headrest protection for an adult.
Wondering if anyone has any experience.

Hi, there! Can you provide some more information, like the height and weight of the person, and what vehicle this will be in? I assume there are special needs involved? If so, what type?

Merritt Manufacturing has a positioning harness called the "Chamberlain"

It is for children and adults 80 to 225 pounds. It includes a vest and head rest. It also includes a feature that prevents slouching under the vehicle belt

It keeps the occupant in position while using the automotive seat belt.

The EZ-on 86Y harness can be used until 166# and would help with staying upright. If side to side support is also needed, a truck support belt or vest is probably your best bet. I have seen the Leckley Waistcoat, which is for wheelchair support) successfully used on a van's captain's chair. Keep in mind that the regular seatbelt would need to be used with any option.
