DVD/Headrest aftermarket upgrade from Ebay?

[waikikiTed]

anyone familiar with this setup or this seller? The system looks interesting - My ultimate concern is that are the headrests true OEM leather, but he does state that they are.

I'd like to add this option, but it's an expense for nothing other than a frill I wont really need, so an inexpensive (relatively) option like this is appealing.

Thanks for your input.

i checked out someone that got them and they looked nice looked like factory headrests to me.. you should be able to find a good deal on them.. you probably can even find then for less than that. but yeah they would look great.!

I have never pulled the design drawings for the H2 headrests, but I would be willing to bet a lunch, they are NOT LEATHER.

WHOSNEXT: Did you buy them from the same guy? Also, are they noticably different from you read headrests? Main thing is I dont want them to look out of place in the vehicle.

Here's the reply he sent me:

He might be flat out lying, I don't know. It does seem to low a price for these to be actual Hummer leather. And I remember the old saying...."If its too good to be true then it probably is......................"

they probably are oem.. beacuse alote of people trade in their original headrests.. and get ones with monitors in them.. you can get oem ones on ebay for 20 or 30 bucks.. so i think they probably are the real headrested that he installs the monitors in.. the monitors might not be the best . but the ones ive seen look pretty nice.

That's reassuring. I'm not worried about them being the best of quality.... not like I'll see them anyway. Its for the little guy. I just want my headrests to remain looking consistent in the vehicle.

same guy, they look OEM, im very happy.......

they look OEM, but I am not 100% sure that the head rests are leather in Hummer. I believe its just the seating surfaces that are leather. I could be wrong though.

I have those same headrests. They are well worth the money if you have children. Mine died over a year later and he replaced the dvd player and a complete set of headrests for about 60 bucks.

I have a 9 and 12 y/o and don't mind telling anyone that expects their kids to do stupid things like stick their fingers in the screens to buy these.

For the money, they work excellent and was worth every penny. The headrests are out of an H2 and match exactly.

I am by no mean comparing these to a set of 1400 invision screens but for the difference between the two... it's not worth spending the extra money. I don't watch them, the kids do.
