My understanding is that all seats have accommodations for these plastic receptors. Feel firmly along the top of the seatback and you'll find two indentations under the padding. Cut a 1/2" by 1/2" "X" at each and insert the receptor. Drive it home. I got the headrest from a listmember. I'm still looking for three more grey in front/black on back "westy" type headrests. -- Regards, David Bogle Brooklyn '87 Syncro Westfalia 6-Passenger |
