Purpose and compatibility with Mercedes W164

The presented middle headrest has been designed specifically for the rear bench seat in the Mercedes M-Class W164 generation. Its placement in the central part of the rear seat allows for comfortable head support for the passenger sitting in the middle, improving ergonomics and safety while driving. Thanks to the factory design, the correct mounting points are maintained, which facilitates installation in the original backrest guides.

Material and interior color scheme

The headrest is made of natural leather in a brown shade, matched to the luxurious interior configurations used in the Mercedes W164. The leather upholstery provides a pleasant-to-the-touch, durable material that withstands intensive use well. The brown color scheme allows for consistency with the factory seats, which is particularly important when replacing a single element in a vehicle already in use.

Function, ergonomics, and comfort

The rear middle headrest serves an important functional role – it stabilizes the passenger's head position and limits excessive tilting during sudden braking. The properly selected shape and height allow for:

• more comfortable head support during longer trips,
• better neck support in a seated position,
• a cohesive finish to the rear seat backrest line.

Thanks to the use of leather, the headrest is easy to keep clean – the surface is resistant to typical dirt encountered in daily vehicle use.

Characteristics of the used component

The offered headrest is an original, used Mercedes part, which means it retains factory geometry, proper fitment with the backrest, and compatibility with the mounting system used in the W164. A used component is a good choice for interior repairs when you want to match the remaining cabin elements without the need for a costly replacement of the entire seat set.

Integration with other rear seat headrests

The rear middle headrest in brown leather allows you to restore a full set of three headrests in the second row of seats. This makes the backrest line visually complete, and each passenger has their own head support at their disposal. This is particularly important in premium class cars, where stylistic interior consistency influences the overall perception of the vehicle's quality.
