> Your year and model would help but the basic answer assuming US market Westy from `86 - `91 is no.  There is not an already inplace piece to insert headrests for the rear seat of a Westy.  Some people have made their own but that is about all you can do.  The challenge is making something that is secure enough to withstand a crash without breaking and causing more injury.  Someone else may respond with what they have adapted, made, or a link to more information.  I have seen photo's and a write up that involved stack headrests and inserts plus some pipe and bracketry but can't find it at this time.
