I imagine they should have no problem taking care of those pillows for me.
I have plenty of alcantara in my Ferrari but I dont rub my head on it LOL.. Nor does my wife put in hairspray and leave it sittin for hours. I guess we'll all see how they hold up, I still think they could have done it better

Streamliner, besides the new Genesis 90, have you considered the new BMW 7?

I think the color you have is Mocchiato? If so, MBZ of San Diego has a pair. I had ordered 2 - I had the correct part # but can’t find it now - and instead of buying them I decided to move the two rears to the front, which I did with the help of a good upholstery shop.
now that I have the pillows, I’m not so sure I like them, and I had to remove the one from the passenger side because it “messes with” my wife’s hair, something that many people may agree with. On the driver’s side…I’m not so sure I like the pillow. Tried all placements, from neck to top of head, and not so comfortable. And when I get out of the car, MY hair looks like The kid from Little Rascals (gotta be old to remember them) with the cowlick sticking up on the back of his head.

On our first drive, within five minutes, my wife had me pull over and she removed her pillow and tossed it in the back seat. Her comment: “I guess MB has no women on their interior design staff.” The pillows are ridiculous. They are something I would not have expected from a top line German automaker.

They were soft, comfortable, Nappa Leather and I often leaned my head back and enjoyed the luxurious, comfortable feeling of them. If one felt they might be soiled, you just wiped them off. These new pillows are horribly porous and attract natural hair & body oils like a frigging sponge. If they get soiled, have fun trying to clean them. In addition, I find them more annoying than comfortable. Honestly, I might of expected something like these pillows from Nissan or Kia. From MB, they are a very bad joke and the joke is on US!

Which is strange because Mercedes likes to market their cars with the "She's Mercedes" campaign and I guess we can also say Mercedes was a feminine name and still is... (without going back to history on how this name came by) not to mention lots of people consider Mercedes' design very feminine as well.
