anybody know how to or if i can fit rear headrests in my syncro westy...kids just about to loose their kiddie seats but i don't like their heads unsupported. cant feel any holes under the fabric but dont want to wreck the seat looking for a way?????

I've seen westy's fitted with headrests on the rock n roll seat so it is possible but i'm not sure how.


The headrests (on a standard seat atleast) fit into plastic inserts like this:

On a caravelle seat the backrest is a metal framed affair and theres a box section about 5" down the back of the seat the ends of the plastic thingys plug into.

Multivan seats use a plate inside the seat backrest the headrest mounts mount to.

I've got grey 3 headrests off a caravelle and 6 of the plastic things somewhere in my shed if you find they do fit.

thanks very much.....i'll be in touch ..cheers

They are fitted to my Westy Atlantic but was done as an original interior option, so not sure if that meant a different seat back was installed.

Vagcat shows the brackets like this on a multivan. Not sure if a westy bed/seat is the same.

Thanks...looks like a retro fit is gonna get ugly!! ummmm

my kids are 10 and 8 and are nowhere near the head rest height, but i do have the holes for them
