WTB Need Headrests -- Please help~!
Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for some head rests that will fit a 2000 GS400. There should be a pretty wide-range available, but I'm not exactly sure on the specifics.
I'm looking for either "information," a link to a cheap vendor (I cannot find any), or someone who may have happened to swap theirs out for some LCD once, who may have them lying around.
I added some pics if anyone is able to help me out.
Let me know!! This would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for looking into this everyone. I went through a lot trying to get this resolved!
I called my local Lexus and they told me $600 / pc, I choked, laughed, kinda puked in my mouth a little... lol.
Then I spent days calling junk yards, nobody has junk Lexus' go figure.
I almost fabricated my own set, which would have cost around $100 - $200 a piece.
Yikes, what an issue! Finally, I decided to ignore people telling me that different models have different widths on the prongs, in addition to openning the option of reskinning. I drove to my favorite foreign car junk yard and asked them to drive me around so that I could pick up cloth or leather headrests from Toyota's (they had no Lexus'). Found two cloth ones, and sure enough, found a 98 or 99 Black Lexus ES 300 with tan leather interior, literally car was split in two, I yanked off the head rests and they fit perfectly!!
Best part about this, the junk yard didn't have the Lexus in the computer system, and because the line kept growing behind me at the checkout. They just let me have them for free. Ha! Perseverance pays off!
Sorry for the story. But, if you still have some Tan Leather, that can tilt, like the GS ones do, for a decent price, I'm still willing to entertain.
LMK and Thanks!
