w123 rear headrest question
Hi, I am new to this forum and haven't been able to find any pictures on 123 rear headrests. I have all the brackets but I am having a hard time fining out which headrests are for the rear. Are they the same has the front or are they the ones that have a bend in the shafts. Kind of like 126 rears.
Here are a couple of pics of the two different ones. Any info would be great. |

I believe the rear headrest, a mostly European option, has the bent legs. Not sure if the ones pictured are the correct ones, but I know the correct ones are bent.
Wait for the smart guys to answer......

I did that retrofit on my 300SD. Real easy and looks sweet.

I thought about rear headrests when I owned my first 300D. I changed my mind when I realised that they would cut some of my rear view visibility and also I rarely ever had rear sear passengers. No one also really wanted to sit behind me anyway because I needed to have my seat all the way back.
