    FS: OEM Rear Touring headrests.

    Got a few sets in Schwarz available.

    All of 'em comes with the mounting hardware, you'll have to cut the holes in the leather to fit the guide tubes into the seat frame and install the oval trim pieces in the leather.

    Set #1:
    Condition's 8/10 Has some minor wear such as imperfections in the leather. Overall they're pretty good.
    Price's $165 shipped.




    Set #2:
    Condition's the same as set #1, just normal wear for a 25 year old headrests and none of the tear.
    Same $165 shipped for a set.



    Set #3:
    This one has been re-wrapped in genuine Nappa leather, so these are basically brand new.
    Price's: $225 shipped.




    I can send detailed pics of said imperfections upon request.

    If you find a set of parchment head rests, let me know.

    I snagged 'em. I've been waiting around for a set in parchment for so long that I just jumped at these. I'll either re-dye them parchment, or use them as inspiration to finally convert my interior to black

    Or sell the black ones to me and keep looking for parchment...?

    Don't y'all need the inserts for the seats to install these? Or are they built in to US rear seats? (Euro touring owner here, just curious)

    I won't be installing these immediately, as I already have full sized sedan front headrest installed. If you run across a nice set of parchment in the next 6 months or so, let me know and maybe we can arrange a trade. I installed the sedan headrests about 5 years ago as a stop-gap while searching for correct touring headrest. 5 years ago! I haven't seen a set of parchment touring headrest in that time, so I just jumped on these.

    The recess for the post is already in the foam of the seat. You need to cut two small x's into the top of the seat leather where those recess are. You then install two plastic trim grommets with metal clips. The post of the headrest go into the holes, and the rings on the posts click into the metal clips. These parts are the same as the headrest for the front seat and are the same part numbers, I believe.

    Cool, good to know. Thanks!

    FWIW, I pulled the center headrest out from my touring (it is parchment), the visibility is pretty divided with it in and I so rarely need headrests for five people... I'll keep 'em though for originality.

    Or do like I did and buy a whole interior off German Ebay for $150 and have them send just the rear headrests. Had them in a week. You'll wait a long time for them to show up here.

    After being at the post office for a week, yesterday they finally left a note on my door to come pick them up on the other side of town today. USPS really sucks in my town.

    Thanks for the easy transaction Sriufke!

    Those look great! And I really wish I could buy your touring for Miss Montalbon. Unfortunately, she thinks matching cars would make us look corny (which is probably true, lol.) GLWS!

    They aren't the same as front headrests.
    Mi snagged some grommets out of an e32 for mine iirc.
    They really don't block much view imo.

    If you can't find a buyer (unlikely, I know) let me know. I'd take them off your hands.

    Your opinion is either clouded by fanboyism, or your head hangs out the sunroof when you drive. The center headrest perfectly blocks every last square inch of the rear window. I took mine off, but I usually drive with the seats down anyway.
