Man, he is too damn stubborn lol.
And you're right, we still don't know if it will fit our Monte's.

He'll take $225 and free shipping parcel post. Let me know by PM if we go any further. I gave him my ph # again, and I'll give you mine if you're still interested.

Wayne, you may want to PM Chris, he was initially interested in them.
I'll send him a PM.

you could easily get those made for you at the fraction of the price that he is selling them for.
his auction says only 8 sets made by GM...
I call shenanigans!
GM doesn't make headrests.
They get them pre-assembled from other companies.
I used to work for an auto parts factory that assembles headrests and there was 100's of different embroidered headrests that came thru, they never had just 8 of anything, even the prototypes came in boxes of 50.
This guy is making a killing from a false advertisement.

...IF you ever go look at them.
From this thread it looks like the guy has been playing phone tag and dodging you for 2 weeks. I bet he doesn't want a face to face private sale because you could easily come back and punch him in the nose for ripping you off.

Back when I first started working at that headrest company, I would assemble 140 headrests an hour and we would laugh about the purchase parts for the dealership that they would charge $80 a piece when it costs about $7 each to make them...I never dreamed anyone would consider paying $500 for a pair!

You could unclip your own headrest covers and take it somewhere to get embroidered for abut $20, and spend the other $480 on hookers and beer!

Great infor member 2002MonteSS.
Maybe he used to work at one of these plants and saved himself a pair. lol
The cool thing about that sale, you would get matching floor mats to go with it, other than that i agree on custom embroidery.
