I don't know why GM didn't include the Stitched SS lettering on the Monte SS like they do with the Impala SS.
I looked for a long time on Ebay and other sites to find headrests but always came up empty. Thought about having mine done at an upholstery shop but that was too expensive. Finally I just ordered a set for an Impala SS from my local dealer , now the car looks right.

here is a close up and a full shot


I to mine to a interior shop and they gave me the leather to take to the embroidery shop to get them stitched on the leather and then back to the interior shop so they could re wrap the headrests .

the impala headrests fit on the 06-07 monte's but not on the 00-05 monte's. I don't think the space between the pole's match up. The best thing to do would be either grab some off of a pace car/special edition or have them custom embroidered at a shop. I paid 150 for my impala ones from a member on here and have seen them go for more and less over time.
