Default Headrests

My passenger rear headrest has some damage to the leather. I want to replace it but when i look on the web like ebay i see alot of front ones. Are they the same the front and rears? Im going to check myself but i keep forgetting to so i thought i ask.

The front headrest padding is wider by an inch compared to the rear, the distance between the two underlying posts are about the same though so it might fit.

Where did you buy them from? I see them on ebay for 225 for a set of brand new front ones. Are the rears cheaper?

I bought mine for 65 front. You need to wait untill somebody will sell it. I dont know the color that you looking for, but I got mine from the guy on ebay his user name is all_of_your_needs. He has set of Ivory for $59.99. Its fron but it will fit rear perfectly. I did it on mine.

This auction can be deceiving..... is the auction for a SET of front headrest(s) or not? I sent the seller an email but nothing back yet.

I'm pretty sure he means SET because he says he has lots of "sets" to sell. Probably just an oversight because here's another one for you that says SET from him:

Actually - that might be for the LX.

No, didn't have that issue with him. After the initial ebay response, we've been using our regular emails instead of ebay.
