Default Headrest replacement needed !
I have screw up the effort to fit my existing JVC LCD screen to one of my GS rear headrest.
(there is a big hige joint at the middle of the foam which block the LCD screen from seating in)

Now I end up a cut out (cross) headrest leather cover !
'What shoudl I do next ?
option 1: buy a used rear headrest out there in the internet
option 2: purchase a replacement unit from Lexus dealer.
option 3: go for a direct mounted headrest with LCD built-in.

Can any one of you experience guy help me out here ?

Do you think the IS headret will match the GS one ?

Bring it to a upholstrey shop, they can fix you up. Much less than dealer, and they can even put your screens in too (and make them look good)

$95 is not a bad price. What is the condition of the leather?
