Best Buy sells headrests with the monitors built in. They are made by epik. Epik doesnt make the headrests for CLKs but they do make them for MLs. Does anyone know if they use the same headrests???? Thank you!

They fit, but they don't work right. You can get proper headrests from SAVV. SAVV didn't understand that M-class headrests were different than all the other Mercedes and sent me a set a day before a show, so I had to use the M-class ones for a few days until I got the proper headrests.

We're talking W208 here right? Try a regular headrest to see if it fits first before buying them.

yes w208. i figured next time i see stemags ill ask him if i can check to see if his w210 headrests fit in my w208. im not really concerned with the actual headrest looking like a w208 one, i just want to make sure the diameter of the w210 headrest bars fit into the w208 holes and that the distance between the holes/bars is the same.

The size/distance should be identical.
