Anyone bought TV/Headrest from Ebay or fitted any in stock headrest?

I have seen a few advertised on ebay in the UK and wondered if any actually fit and if they look ok? I guess Ill put a cover over the headrest so if it looks a 'little' different I wouldnt mind too much.

I dont want to pay BIG money for them but I would also try fitting some myself if anyone has any instructions or if anyone has a tutorial to follow?

Cheers guys,

JJ

Here is ours. it was expensive for the use we get out of them now a days but they work well.

My only wish is that these headrest dont articulate as well as the original stock BMW headrest. They look about 98 % stock..

See if these pics work.. Got both installed at my BMW dealer for 2500!!! ouch!
