Mine arrived about 1 hour ago. Ordered them from the UK. They fit great and are a perfect match to the interior. Most important; I can see out the back window now!

Can you provide a link to where you purchased them from in the UK?
I wonder if the front seat headrests are also shorter on the non us CX-5's

just as an FYI I purchased my headrests from Anthony Zavalianis at Berwick Mazda in Australia. I also purchased CX-5 logoed seat covers
KE11-AC-SCF from him (link for those are below)

Do you know that the seat covers are intended for seats with airbags in them? Bad things can happen to you if you have a seat cover that won't let the airbag deploy properly, should the situation ever arise. And if North Carolina has vehicle inspection, they may get forcibly removed.
Edit: And then I looked at the description on ebay... they are, indeed, airbag-compatible. Still, the precaution about state inspection stands. If the person doing the inspection wants to be a jackass, they're going to be a jackass.

My Non-US Spec rear head restraints arrived today for my 2015 CX-5 GT w/tech. They fit perfect , look great , and give a finished touch to the back seats without impairing the drivers vision out the rearview mirror. I purchased mine from Fendyman and the transaction was smooth and professional with Lightning Fast shipping , I sent payment Wednesday evening and the head restraints , being shipped from the west coast , arrived this morning at my house south of Boston , that's three days total transaction time from start to finish! If you are on the fence about ordering these I would highly recommend that you do and I would also recommend doing business with Fendyman. I will post a few pics.

I believe it's from the same person (spin)
Not a bad price. I think from the UK I paid $26x.xx and it took less than 3 weeks.
If you're wanting it faster, it's a good option.

I used the info from Skeptical's post in this thread (#112)
"I found a supplier for these in the UK. Bourne Road Garage Mazda.
http://shop.crayford-mazda.co.uk/cat...da_CX_5,b.html
You can simply email off the site or call. You want to ask for Andrew Fisher. He is great. The headsets take about 4 weeks to arrive in the UK from Japan (they are not in stock in the UK) and then about 4-7 days more via UPS to the good ole USA."

^This.
If you do another group buy let us know (subscribed to thread), others may also be interested in the rear side window sunshades as well...
Got link? Are they JDM? I'm looking at Mazda JDM accessories catalog but I don't see them... (dunno)

Btw, people keep sending PM but I don't have anymore JDM black leather rear headrests.
I do have few other trims (both black & sand colors) JDM rear headrests. PM me if interested.
Refresh my memory, what would a pair of sand leather headrests cost shipped to Virginia?
$220 shipped via USPS (signature required).
