Any ZDX+07-13 MDX owners out there? Do you know if the rear folding headrest will fit on the 07-13 MDX 2nd row seats? The current MDX 2nd row headrest are so large and block rear visibility. I was thinking the ZDX might work and can be folded down 95% of the time when it is just me in the vehicle.

Thx!

I checked my local area and not a single ZDX for sale or in a junk yard in a 3-4 hour radius. I measured the distance between the headrest post on my 11 MDX for the 2nd row seat and it looks like around 5 1/4 inches from outer edge to outer edge of the post (post about 1/2 inch wide). Can some measure the same two distances on their ZDX to see if the headrest might fit in the same slot?

I might have to go with 07-09 MDX headrest since those are a little shorter compared to the +10 MDX 2nd row headrest.

Thx!

Any ZDX owner willing to help a fellow Acurazine member out with a quick measurement?

ZDX is 6 1/4".

Thanks for the help! Looks like the rear headrests are not interchangeable. I owe you a beer the next time you are in Albuquerque.

Curious, but unless your rear seats are frequently occupied by tall adults, why not just pull the headrests and throw them in the trunk, or maybe drive with the seats folded down and get a cargo net?

The MDX is the wifey vehicle and she usually has co-worker in her car during lunch runs a few times a week. Both my kids are adult size (6 foot & 5'4") and they would need the headrest if something happened. I usually have to remove the headrest if I need to put the seats down for any reason (I'm 6'3" with the seat back to the max). The +10 MDX headrest are huge, it is like having two 6 footers in the 2nd row at all times. The MDX 2nd row headrest might be larger than the ZDX front rows. I do have a cargo net; but, it would be an everyday thing to put the headrest on/off. I was hoping the ZDX headrest might work or I might have to go for the smaller 07-09 MDX 2nd row headrest (if they fit). I do have BSI and that does come in handy with lane changes.
