Rear headrests

[Bren]

The rear headrests in the S make my 10 year old childs head sit funny, and are unable to move high enough to move out of the way. Very uncomfortable. Can you get replacement headrests like in the SE that goes straight up, and still fit the S seats?
Who in Aust should I ring or online to source the headrests on Mon?
Thanks
Bren

Thankyou all, not!
We went and saw another Disco 3 today and my wife worked out that when the headrest is all the way up it will fold back and blend in with the back seat.
Well there you go, the first forum that nobody has been able to answer or suggestions!
Go wife!

Usually helps if you post which vehicle you are asking the question about.
Or you could put your vehicle info in your signature.;)

No worries warren9981. This is a Disco 3/4/RRS forum isn't it? I didn't mean any offence by it. I normally think the knowledge on this site is amazing and informative.
Cheers

ps I don't know how to put that in my signature.

1952 Ute, LWB Series IIA, Series II SWB, Disco 1 1994 TDI and bought Disco 3 today.

I thought you were talking about the rear sits not the ones in the boot. :confused:

Turn them back to front (front of the headrest faces backwards) they will fit that way, puts the head rest a bit furher back
and level with the seat;)

You need to be more realistic in you expectations of a time frame for a response - you waited only about 12 hours and on a Sunday when most people are out 4wding.

Responses can be quick or slow - it is a forum afterall - most people have other priorities and may not spend a lot of time on here.

I think people's expectations on these forums are getting a little out of hand. The OP's complaining that no one answered him within one day?? :mad:

No info on the car model (D3? D4? - very different), which row of seats (2nd? 3rd?)

I've seen this starting to crop up on several of the Land Rover forums in the last few months. We give out all this info for free, in our own time - but we still get abused for being slow ...........

I wouldn't take it too much to heart guys.

He did say he didn't mean to offend anyone and he came back with an answer to his own question. A couple of strategically placed emoticons may have help him a bit though.

Welcome to the Land Rover fold forum Bren!
EDIT: Thought you were a new user but you're actually an old hand - new to D3/D4/RRS. Maybe you should have known better. Enjoy the D3!

Speaking which; the I have found the choice of emoticons to not be very helpful. No 'thumbs up' no 'LOL' and two 'angry lock threads'. It takes a long time to find suitable ones in the pop up window. So maybe some more in the reply window?

Caver, might be a good suggestion for you to post in Inc's thread:

You've always been very quick to respond to my questions Gordon. You even posted me my Handbook while you were on the road in the ES! :)

Thanks Baz, i thought of reversing the headrest when I went to see the vehicle, but we worked out in the process the headrest actually flexes.

Thanks SBD4, I drove the D3 home today along bush roads and then the highway. What a great ride and power. Far cry from double clutching my Series II.

Cheers :)
