...as the title says really - i stumbled across this article in the Wiki section
http://www.e30zone.net/e30zonewiki/inde ... _Headrests
and i just wonder if some 2 door Sports came with them as headrests were a common extra (but not specced on mine)
Dont want to yank the seatback off if i know the fixings/tubes are not there!

did he say it was?
what a childish response :roll:


the rear seats are very simple to remove.
if your car does not currently have r/h/r, the fixings will not be there either.

i have headrests and fixing kits available:

Fixings for rear headrests won't be there, but the fixings for the fixings (if that makes sense) will be. Easily added, and the headrests themselves are the same as the fronts.

as someone stated before...they are/can be a very important safety feature for rear passengers during a smash,and save necks !


get the kit from adit, fit yourself takes half an hour and they look superb once fitted , give a great sporty look from inside and outside the car, i love em

Mine just drop in on the Touring... :o:

Easier to get in and out when you fold the back seats though... winkeye
Currently slumming it in an E46 Touring
