Fitment questions
Will a headrest from a W220 S-Class fit my W221 S-Class?
No — the W220 (1998–2005) and W221 (2006–2013) are different generations with different seat designs, so their headrests are not interchangeable. You need to source a headrest from the correct generation to get the right shape, guide-rod spacing, and trim finish. Confirm the exact part with the breaker against your registration.
Does a headrest from a 2010 S-Class fit a 2014 S-Class?
These sit in different generations — the W221 ran from 2006 to 2013, while the W222 started in 2013, so a 2010 part is from a W221 and a 2014 part is from a W222, meaning they are not the same. You'll need a headrest matched to your specific generation. Confirm compatibility with the breaker against your registration before buying.
Does the trim level affect which headrest I need for my Mercedes S-Class?
Yes, trim level matters on the S-Class because higher-specification variants such as AMG Line and S 63 AMG often have different seat styles — for example, sports or massaging seats — which use differently shaped headrests with different guide-rod configurations compared to standard SE or L seats. Always tell the breaker your trim level as well as your generation so they can match the correct seat type. Confirm the specific headrest against your registration with the breaker.
I have a long-wheelbase S-Class — does that change which headrest I need?
The long-wheelbase (Saloon L) variants of the S-Class can have rear seats with additional or different headrest designs, particularly in higher-spec rear-passenger configurations, so wheelbase and seating layout are worth mentioning to the breaker. The front headrests are generally shared with the standard-wheelbase car of the same generation and trim, but you should still confirm this. Tell the breaker your exact variant and registration to be sure.
Does it matter which side the headrest comes from — driver's or passenger's?
For most standard S-Class seats the front headrests are interchangeable between NS (nearside, passenger) and OS (offside, driver) because they are the same shape, but this can vary if the seat has built-in speakers or ventilation specific to one side. Rear headrests may differ in number and size depending on the seating configuration, especially on long-wheelbase models. Check with the breaker whether the headrest you're buying is suitable for your specific seating position.
Will a pre-facelift W222 headrest fit a post-facelift W222 S-Class?
The W222 S-Class received a significant facelift in 2017 which included interior updates, and whether the headrests interchange across that boundary depends on the specific seat type fitted to each car. The generation is the same, which is a good start, but trim and seat specification can still cause differences. Confirm with the breaker against your registration whether the pre- or post-facelift headrest is suitable for your exact car.
