What do you mean by brackets?

If your seat frames have the receiving tube you can fit headrests. If not, you would have to modify the frame first.

If you mean the chrome oval tube part of the headrest, with the associatedp latic monuding to support the foam and covering, then you would have ot find some used headrests. Be aware that they are the same as the XJ6 and XJ12 of that time. It tends to help pricing if you leave off the dreaded 'E-type' description, as you have probably discovered by now...

The bracket is probably also the same as various Leyland models such as the Marina/Ital and Allegro. The moulded foam armrests for S2/S3 certainly are.
