Hi !
I think I'll order today the parts and give a try to this upgrade.
I just ordered 
I also ordered the extra plastic pieces displayed in the ETK, just to be sure that nothing will be missing.
I do not expect to provide your feedback before at least one month considering upcoming holidays & part unavailability
I'd be happy to read how matt0462 did to remove the plastic cover without a dremel...
Regards
Matt

Hi
For sure i Will... But i hope that it will be ok in my case as i currently have basic seats ans not sport seats as in the first post (headrest height is manual in my case and i have plastic guides with lockers (not a plastic cross bar as full electrical seat models))

I just did this DIY and there is a way to get the black cover off without the dremel... I will post a DIY soon with lots of pics. What this doesn't tell you is that the comfort headrest WILL NOT lay flush with the seat. The comfort headrest WILL sit 2 inches off the sport seat at the fully lowered position.
Very easy DIY

Note that my car have standard seats and not Sport seat as first post of the thread... thus maybe it will directly work for me or with hard work... don't know.
That will be a different experience that the one that started this thread.

I have standard seats too. So your work will definitely help me out.
