#1 E type headrests

Post by david0078 » Thu Sep 08, 2011 11:50 am

What is required to fit headrests in a seat that does not have them, I have a set of headrests here and the bezel, is there a bracket inside the regular seat to accept the headrest under the leather?

Hi,

If you have blanks in the trim for the headrests, then you should have brackets in the seats to accept the headrests, if not then you will have to take the trim off the seats and do some modifications to the frame; do-able, but not simple and you should be confident in the person doing the welding.

Blanks will be obvious - normally chrome finished with plastic blanks clip into the chrome trim, which may of course be missing. You don't mention which Series you have, but earlier cars are less likely to have them than later ones.

Best of luck

Regards,
