Rear headrest conversion

[Blue MK2]

Does anyone know what is involved to add rear headrests to a mk2 rear bench?

Any etka diagrams peeps? (cant be arst)

[Dizzie]

mine came with them

I wouldn't bother. they're always in the way. I would remove them, but that'd leave 4 little holes along the back

Think im gonner get myslef down to the scrapper and find a Jetta with headrests in it. Apparently a couple of bits that you need are discontinued. If i have a bash at it ill take some pics when i do it.

Are the front headrests any different from the back ones or could you use front headrests as rears

[rubjonny]

Fronts are the same except they have bent rods, just straighten them in a vice and you're all set

So will all the front mounts and everything fit in the rear if i straighten it or is it just the headrests themselves  

[rubjonny]

Just the headrests I believe.  You could get away without straightening, they'll just be leant forward a bit is all.
