Re: Looking for advice and were to buy M20 exhaust system

I would go custom. There was a place in Enfield called Torque and a place in St Albans called Emp Performance. You choose the style of tail pipes, the sound and what sections you want changed etc. Life time guarantee etc

Rear headrests, are they easy to install?

I have seen some e30s with rear headrests and some without, is it easy to install them or do you need to literally change the whole rear seats with ones with rear headrests?
