Thanks for the pics!
It's pretty comfortable. On the first sit though, it felt a bit uncomfortable and hard. It is also because I tighten it too much that I couldn't move it and it sat too low (by my shoulders). After loosening it up a bit and was able to move it to my neck while sitting comfortably in my usual driving position, it felt pretty good. I think it still needs some breaking in to soften up the cushion. Overall, it is pretty comfortable and I could see this being very helpful in long drives. I also think it adds to the look of the interior, it makes the back look more comfortable.

RFx, would you mind taking a shot of your car from the outside, with all the doors closed?

Hopefully your tint isn't that dark, and we can see how they look from afar.

I'll take a pic after I get my car washed, maybe by this weekend. From what I could tell, it all depends on the lighting. When it is dark or a gloomy day or in the shade, the inside can't be seen that much. However, when the sun hits it, especially in certain angles it really is visible especially with the cashmere interior. I have some pics in the link in my sig but I'll take some better pics later.

The above was hillarious IMO!!!

In my Infiniti, I had the emboridered seat belt pads. I actually liked the soft feel of them on long trips. I have to wonder how the neck pads are. My neck is always sore from sleeping the wrong way. Can anyone provide a theraputic benefit to these things?

^^ Mark did say that it is shipped in the order of the payments were received so I guess it depends on that as well.

I think the white looks good with your interior, but watch out! White gets sooo dirty. Don't let anyone with a jerry curl or a lot of hair product try them out. LOL

Maybe it just needs an extra layer of Aerospace Protectant 303 or just buy one these for the neck pads as well:


Actually, the neck pads were paccked with these, maybe I can just leave it on to keep it from being dirty.
