Aircooled experts in Staffordshire anyone?!!

Hi fellow T25ers! Our beloved 1980 Aircooled petrol Betty Blue is seriously poorly. She went in to my local garage to fix her stalling and misfiring problem (common I gather), the guys just increased her revs and she ran, but racing like crazy and we managed 7 miles on a tenner's worth of petrol bef...

Re: Headrests need a fitting thingy - what the devil is it?

Thanks!
But how do they stay put without inserts? I'm so sorry to be a bit thick! Am very happy if I can just make clips from coathangers, but what am i clipping them to without inserts? All knowledge gratefully received.
Have put a note in the wanted forum.

Many thanks

Does anybody know if other headrest inserts will fit?

Hi all Yes I am obsessed with headrest fitting officially! Does anyone know if you can substitute any other make of headrest guide/insert for the VW ones on original seats and caravelle headrests at all?
