Nissan NP300 Headrest Replacement Parts

The NP300 Navara (sold in the UK from around 2015 onwards as the D23 generation) uses headrests that are tied to the specific seat design for that generation, so staying within the D23 generation gives you the best chance of a match. The trim level also matters, as higher-spec trims such as Tekna may use different seat designs to mid-range trims like Acenta or entry-level Visia. Ask the breaker to confirm the donor vehicle's year, trim, and seat type against your registration before buying.

Yes, trim level is relevant because the NP300 Navara was offered in trims including Visia, Acenta, and Tekna, and the seat style and headrest design can differ between them. A Tekna, for example, may have leather or part-leather seats with a different headrest profile to the fabric seats found on a Visia. Always tell the breaker your exact trim so they can match the donor headrest accordingly.

The D23 NP300 Navara received a facelift during its production run, and while the body changes were largely exterior, some interior updates can accompany a mid-cycle refresh. Whether a pre-facelift headrest crosses over to a post-facelift seat without issue is not something that can be guaranteed, so you should confirm with the breaker by checking both the donor and your own registration to see if the seat and headrest design changed at that point.

It can matter because different cab configurations on the NP300 Navara may have different rear seat arrangements or no rear seats at all in the case of a single cab, affecting which rows of headrests exist. For front headrests the cab style is less likely to change the part itself, but for rear headrests it is important to confirm the donor vehicle shares the same cab configuration as yours. Let the breaker know your cab type and which row the headrest is for.

No, the engine and drivetrain do not affect headrest fitment on the NP300 Navara — the seats and headrests are determined by the generation and trim level, not by whether the vehicle is diesel, petrol, two-wheel-drive, or four-wheel-drive. You can safely ignore the engine specification when searching, but do make sure you match the generation, trim, and cab type as described in the other questions.

Headrests are generally a straightforward swap — most simply pull upright out of the seat back guides and push back in — so DIY fitting is typically fine as long as the replacement is the correct match for your seat. Headrests are not safety-critical components in the same way as airbags or seatbelt pretensioners, so no specialist fitting is required. That said, confirm the headrest is a genuine like-for-like match before fitting to avoid a loose or rattling fit.
