Do cabbys look best with or without rear headrests?

I refuse to drive cabbies that dont have rear headrests. The car just dosent look complete without them.

I'd tend to agree but I still like them standard - mine was £32k new and had almost every option except them. When I had the rear seat back fixed I was tempted to get them fitted but it would probably be a £150+ job to source grey leather headrests, fitting kits and matched to the current trim.

I added a set of rear headrests to my cab for 60 quid all in. Simples.

I think they look better, more aerodynamic, without rear headrests!
If it ain't broke, fix it till it is

Mine was a 320 so aerodynamics don't play a part!
