They quoted me at $125-$150 per headrest. So about $300 (USD). I left.
Anyone tried the Mazda 6 rear headrests? They look surprisingly similar to the non-US spec rear headrests for the cx-5 (at least, in Canada).
Eto, here is a photo of the Mazda 6 headrests in the CX-5. As you can see they fit in the holes, but there is a gap between the seat and the headrest.
I've been trying to get info on the LED DRL option from my US Dealer. No luck.
Wonder how much the head rests cost.
How much would shipping be from AUS?
I went down to my local dealer a couple days ago with the part# for the blue-ish white LED DRL which is: C901-V7-160 [FL4P] <not sure you need that last bit in brackets though. They came up with nothing and claimed they couldn't order them.
This is a JDM part# and I guess Mazda doesn't allow USDM dealers to access those parts? When I owned my previous Nissan I was able to go to the local dealer and order JDM parts provided I had the correct part#.
If someone does end up pulling the trigger and orders some parts via Australia I would like to join for the LEDs if they are available there as well. They are listed at 5,740yen in case anyone is curious.
Will they slide up and latch? I tried one or two different ones from other models and the posts weren't as thick so it would wobble around and one didn't have notches to hold it in place.

Can't you just cut the ends off and grind a taper on the cut ends so they sit flush?Hands, yes. The poles slide up and latch. But, as the pic shows, there is a gap. That is the farthest they go down.
Why would it matter? The fact is, your car would no longer have any high beams. The legality is a moot point. Who would want to be driving on a dark, rainy highway at night and reach down to turn on the high beams only to find that someone had eliminated that functionality?Do you think they are illegal here in the US?

I know the CX-5 low beams are excellent but they do not negate the need for high beams at higher speeds. It's like asking if it's illegal to remove 5th and sixth gears.
Who would want to do that (and what would be the advantage)?
