Guys,
Has anyone managed to trasplant a set of rear headrests onto a non rear headrest seat back?
I have a complete set back with headrests for donar parts.
Cheers
Ron

Hasn't the seat back got a metal frame construction actually molded into the foam. I have just installed a fixing kit and headrests to my rear seat back. All i had to do was was assemble the fixing brackets and screw them to the seat backs metal frame. Then make holes in the seats for the plastic headrest locators to be fitted. Then slide in the headrests.

to check take out your seat back and you will see an obvious space for the headrests to fit into. rest is easy

Hmmmm interesting.....
I take it the space for the head rests to be mounted is under the fabric?
How can you see it?
Thanks

hofmeister(i cant remember your real name) sorry dude.
remove the rear seat and all will be revealed. pull the bench up, then remove the 2 10ml bolts either side. the back seat can then be pulled upwards off the hooks. have a look.
