99 2.0GLS Estate rear headrests help needed
« on: 21 November 2008, 01:13:28 »
I think I've just bought a car thats no good for us :'(

Its a 99 2.0GLS Estate with no rear headrests (having all had whiplash they wont travel in a car without them).

Does anyone know if changing the seats is the only way to fit them?

Easy enough to swap seats, and usually always a few cloth ones going as people swap their cloth for leather...

You may have to change front seats as well for a match, possibly doorcards.  Contact one of the breakers on here.

Oh, and make sure any replacement (front) seats are from right age car - 3 different types:

Up to 1997 (open head restraints, no side airbags)
1998 - 1999 (solid head restraints, side airbags)
Facelift (solid restraints, side airbags)

Look in the parts for sale section (though you cannot start a new thread in there yet - sorry), you'll get a feel for who they are.  I won't mention them, as if I forget to mention one of them, they get upset ;D
