Hi guys
Any of you have this one?

I'm curious how it mounts and if it's comfortable.

Actually I'm wondering the same.
Just ordered the neck support but was wondering as well about the pillow.

I got me a pair for Christmas, just in time to test them on a ski trip to the Alps. Worth every penny! The thickness is just perfect- now I actually use the headrest, as I don't have to lean my head backwards to reach it. They are soft, airy (perforated..) and look the part too. It's a shame Volvo made these an accessory- these should be included from the factory..

PS: you mount them in seconds- using an integrated leather belt with velcro..

Not the prettiest of designs from the rear.

I'd have thought a pocket to slide over the headrest or a large wrap-around flap with a velcro seam would have looked better.

Still, I don't have to sit in the back.....
BTW what's the cost of these?

Pricey, as all volvo accessories.. about €60/piece.. I had some dealer coupons that I used to slash the price down..

The pic is from a fellow volvo owner on swedespeed - I have charcoal interior, plus the pillow design seems to have changed slightly (mine have a little volvo flag on the strap, plus the elastic band is slightly wider..) so in real life the strap looks much better than in this pic..

I bought the pillow according to the forums feedback as well the neck cushion:

both made the Volvo even more comfortable. My wife falls asleep almost instantly now.

I bought two of these just last week. Look good, and are comfy. I have the neck cushions as well, but they usually live in the boot!
£30 each by the way.
