Mods you're wasting money on...

[Jozooka]

gonna check those folks out. the car feels incomplete with the headrests out. that said, I pulled ALL the headrests from my old rubicon 4 door. looked stupid with all of em installed.

I picked mine up from https://schwaboparts.com/

He has a new customer discount and free shipping. That was the cheapest I’ve found for BNIB pieces.

FWIW, I ordered a set of the Euro rear headrests from these guys and it's a nice improvement. Better visibility and the color match is factory perfect. They shipped fast/free and with the 10% discount the price wasn't too bad. For something that you'll appreciate every time you use your rear view mirror, it is well worth the cost.

I have been wanting this for a while, but 325 is hard to justify

I grabbed the Audi ones that are fairly abundant, they're black leather with black (instead of red) stitching, and cost about $75.

I got them from the classifieds here, I see them pop up fairly frequently. They're from a B7 A4, so they're not very rare.

That's an example of a set of 3 for $120, but you can definitely get them cheaper.

When you're short these are great. About $125 I think from a guy who sells then on the FB groups..cloth.

Mine have been in a box from the day I bought it. When I sold my old car, guy reached out wondering about the rear headrests. Completely forgot, so had to dig them out of the garage

I also did the visibility mod the day I bought it.

Just got a pair of cloth ones listed on eBay for a 2006-2009 Volkswagen GTI for $75 with shipping. Fit great and match the center headrest.

(Unfortunately, I previously bought a set of the wrong Audi headrests that I’m trying to re-sell but will likely end up eating the cost of.)
