I don’t see why not, considering there was no Raptor in 2020. Had to have come from XL, XLT, etc. You might have an easier time finding something that has the same color as your interior. I was forced because I wanted to keep the orange stitching.

Followed your instructions. 45 minutes to complete. Important to keep the thin plastic bag over the foam. It's like a lubricant. It may seem too tight a fit, be firm with it,

If your interior is black, these are almost a direct match. My wife, who is the Fine brush person in our relationship, said that the pattern was almost in distinguishable. I bought them from a Ford dealer. I think I paid $85 for the two including shipping. The part #s are the same for both sides
The buttons are on the driver side on both headrests which is okay by me.

riddle me this....can I buy these and just do a swap....don't care about losing the Raptor trim - I keep looking back in my RR and thinking how I'd like not to see those stock head rests sticking up

If you don’t want to change the trim, take the old out, put the new in… BOOM off and running!

Short Answer: Yes

I would agree with this. When I was reviewing other posts about this, I don’t recall seeing anything that would make these incompatible.

Very nice and well played Sir!!!

I may do this to my wife's RR at some point but for now since our Aussie is usually the only one riding in the backseat I just pull both headrests out and tuck them under the seat. Whenever a actual person rides back there, please don't tell our Aussie he's not a real person because he will be highly offended since he thinks he is, I put them back in. They go in and out really easy.

I got around to swapping my covers today. I used a different method to cut the hole. I put on the new cover. As noted it is crazy tight but goes on. I just felt for the button and marked the leather. I did not remove the cover. I just used a small pair of sissors to cut it out and worked the leather around the trim.
