The headrest definetly looks more black than the seat, but overall I think they look pretty good. Something different, props for that.

Would be nice if the mounts were hidden better. I've always liked this style of headrest myself.

yea, the leather on my seats fail. I just don't have the money to redo them. I might replace them when I find a good deal on seats in better shape.

I'm not really liking them. It looks like it's missing something, oh wait, the middle part of the headrest.

But really, if they are comfortable and you like it, go for it.

Not bad. Good job on the originality. Do they fit right in the stock holes, with no problems? Are they adjustable up and down? And, I have to know, do they tilt like the I30 headrests?

fit right in and can adjust up and down, but no tilt. I picked them up in a junk yard. I was looking around when I spotted them and said "hmm". I took one and put it in a maxima seat at the yard and said "hmm" again. decided to buy them. Still saying "hmm" btu I think I like them.

I love P11 sport seats and headrests. However, the headrest look better on the original seats due to the shape.

A tad big, but it doesn't look all that bad, if you're looking for a change. The lighting in the photos isn't optimal, so I can't really tell if the profile is totally off and how noticeable the color difference is. But not bad, from what I can tell.

Ahh I didnt realize these came on P10's. Funny I noticed last night my 91 SER seats and head rest are almost the same thing.

P10 is 91-96 Infiniti G20
P11 is 99-02 Infiniti G20

not bad, but I would like them a little lower profile. And it does kinda remind me of an old school Volvo. lol
