I see the 20 way comfort seats were a $1200 option http://consumerguideauto.howstuffwor...5-series-8.htm

I wonder how much BMW would charge? if its $1200 its not to bad...

1481 for both seats plus everything else you would need to retro fit it.... not really worth it.

yes quantity means you need 2 of those items-the price is for one. If you have bought any parts from bmw you would know this. But hey give out wrong info all you want.

Look up their wheel price youll see 4 beside it for 600 bucks or whatever--you think 4 wheels cost 400 form the factor

The comfort head rests are $211 each from Garry @ Newport BMW!

You'll have something close to the real thing for much less.

dude the headrests are not even what is nice about the comfort seat.

The 2 best parts are the wide adjustable sidebolsters that electronically tighten to squeeze you into place

The moving upper back independant support that can contour the upper part different than how reclined the lower part--this is what stands out among every other seat out there-I dont know of another seat in any car that does this.

The headrests are nice but are the least of the functions in the seat for anyone who has them
