Left side OEM, Right side DVD Headrest.



Good luck everyone!

I'm confused. Why is your headrest beige when the OEM one is grey?

I guess because of the lighting in those pictures they may look a little beige to you? but in real life they honestly look almost exact to the OEM.

I've really been holding back on saying anything but this is ridiculous at this point.

I really have to say something because I deal with Leather and DVD Headrests for a living.

That is not a lighting trick or effect otherwise your OEM headrest would not look Gray, it would look beige. If you want to disagree that is your decision but at this point and looking at all the pics in this thread it is so obvious it sickens me... I'm going to call BS. Seriously!

These are 2 different colors. I have seen these headrests and they look nothing like the OEM color and I'm only saying that because it's true. Look at the pics it's soooo obvious.

Your seat and that headrest are obviously two separate colors. Whats the real story morning glory?

Hi, any chance you can post a picture?

There is no need to color match when you use a DVD Headrest that actually uses BMW Material.

Thanks for saying what I was thinking. The pictures in the first post have not convinced me to buy.

Unfortunately, I can't afford the Invision solution, so it's ebay or nothing for me...and those pictures have me leaning towards nothing...

THANK YOU Seabass!

I don't know about you but I can't let this go on. I have too much respect for the people on this forum to not be satisfied by the purchase of a product and for someone to be pushing this hard on a knockoff product. It's almost like walking through the streets of NYC and these kids are trying to sell me Bootleg DVD's. It leads me to beleive either they are the ones pushing it out on eBay or importing it at the very least. I know the game. I am a manufacturer of BMW OEM Factory Product so I know what pleases the masses. This solution will get the job done if you are looking for a cheap fix. But then again so will a $100 Velcro Walmart DVD Strap Kit. It's not going to match the interior and its not going to have a warranty. On top of that it is not Crash Tested nor is it FMVSS Certified safe to use inside the vehicle. SO if something happens with the system there is no support network. But hey if you got $400 to spend on the Xmas Trip across the country that great but don't expect the system to give you 4 good years of service or 4 addition Xmas vacations. But whatever you guys want. It's a great attempt but then again so was Hypercolor T-Shirts. Remember those... they were awesome...until you washed them...once.
