Headrest pillows

My new to me 2018 S350 came with rear pillows. They are super comfortable and a complete waste for my 8 year old. I’d like to have those up front but tonight I noticed those have buttons to attach them. The front headrests don’t have any place for those to button to attach. Do they make pillows just for the front headrests?

I realize this could be a safety issue as comfortable as I’ve gotten my seat position now. I could easily snooze in this car.

I did some searching but all I’ve found are pretty bad aftermarket knockoffs. I’m suspecting they don’t make them. It seems like they should at least do this for the passenger.

If it makes a difference the car has option 866 Preinstallation for Rear Entertainment. Maybe that’s why there are no buttons? But those connections for the screens seems to be the back of the seat, not the headrest.

I use these. They work well for front and rear. Passengers only, I don't like them for my seat. I set them using the lower position, so neck support.

These look pretty good with good reviews. I put them in my cart. Thanks for sharing!

I bought that same set and they didn't work for me, just an FYI. I'm 6'4" and weigh around 300lbs. Based on my torsoe, the pillows fell right behind my neck but that wasn't comfortable in any position. And when I placed them at the same height as the headrest pillow it pushed my head too far forward. The pillows in the back feel great, but for some reason the fronts didn't work for me. Just a datapoint for reference.

I have a set from a Maybach and used Velcro and liquid stitch. Strong enough to work removing, clean and reinstall but you can pull the Velcro off without damage. One more thing, I don’t want to get too comfortable, I don’t want to fall asleep driving.

We have an Emergency Brake System so even if the driver looses the ability to drive the car it should keep the car in safe but I know those are assistant nothing can replace a vigilant driver .
Speaking of those pillows, I fancy them but not have not thought of retrofitting them either
