Default "SS" Headrests in a Monte Carlo?

Has anyone thought about adding "SS" headrests from a 06/07 "SS" Impala into their 06/07 Monte? I think that would be an awesome upgrade!

I agree, I think the embroiderd jobs look super, a real nice classytouch for the SS models.Really sets the car apart from the other models. Don't know why the Impala has them and the Monte doesn't. IMHO the Monte deserves them more so than the Impala.

If you were to add them, I guess you would have to buy a set from the Stealership. I'd hate to see what that would cost. (But I would like to know if anyone can find out)

I called about 6 months ago to see if they were available and they were, but only in the "grey" colour and were not available in Ebony yet, I remember when I called before they were like 160 a piece Canadian, so obviously a little cheaper for those down south.

I almsot get cost at the dealership, so we will see what I can get them for now, and hopefully they are available in black this time.

I suppose cain you wont like this mod either... LOL

There's gotta be after market places that do that. I think if you can remove your head rest you can send it away to get it emroidered somewhere.

yes, unless you find someone really friendly that does that, they're usually too busy to have the time of day for that or they rip you off big time, i priced out something like that for my dakota when i had it, and he wanted 500 bucks to have the dodge logos' embroidered into the headreasts... i said ok no thanks

Ok
I just got home from work, Cost is $140 Canadian per side for leather embroidered headrests. Not bad I dont think. I ordered 2 of them. To get them custom stiched would cost a forture, almost the same as buying 2 new..

Lansing has 36 ebony in stock, well, 34 now!

yeah, but what about the seatbelt guide that is on the Monte headrest?? the impala's don't have it... or does that piece come off and you can put it on the impala headrest??

it'd be interesting to find out, since I've wanted to do this since 2005 when I got my monte... I said all the same things that were mentioned here - "why on a 4-door family sedan, and not the Monte??!!" "why aren't they even offered on the monte??!!" LOL

and back then when I asked about getting them, there was no black, and they were $140 each U.S.

Yeah I thought about the headrest guides, they are actually 1 piece attached into the monte headrest ,so you cant swap them over. But I dont really care about them, I think it will look amazing and have a cleaner look with just the SS headrests...
