Headrest data

Recommended Posts

Were headrests an option for the seats you have fitted when they were new? If so, they might be available second hand or as new-old-stock? Post a photo of the seats - this might act as useful nudge to help source them too. 

You can also get a head/ helmet rest / pad that mounts on the roll-bar. This could be an alternative solution.

Hi Richard

Thanks.  I've sourced some headrests (actually for a Defender 90/110) but want to make sure the stem will fit in the hole before I start faffing around (turns out I'll have to take out the seats, again!, to fit them) so if you have anything like this please measure and send me the dimensions for the stem; l x b & radii.

Thanks

The stem is 130mm in length and a flattened oval that mirrors opening in your seats.

15mm x 30mm

The stem is held in place by 'pinch rollers' that you should be able to feel down the opening.

When inserting the stem into the seat it a tight fit as I guess they are sprung and they stay at what ever height (if that makes sense).

What's the difference between S type and Pre S type and when did they change?

My car is 96 and the seat panels on the back are horizontal rather than vertical so I'm guessing that they are S3?

Are the seats interchangeable? 

Are the headrests the same?

#11 The bench seat and Pre S Type are interchangeable. The base cushion of the bench seat rest directly on floor between the back panel and the bar on the floor ie no movement. The Pre S Type runners bolt to a fixing at the rear and through the floor bar at the front.

I think 'S Type' seats have a bolster supporting the thigh at front of the base.

Paul - A length of oval hanging rail is the same size as the head rest bar. Might be a mm under sized but I tried in my seats and it fitted and 'gripped'.
