    Defender rear headrests

    Hi All,

    I'm about to fit a cargo barrier (probably Milford) to my new Defender 110 Xtreme, and I am wondering about attaching headrests for the rear seats to the cargo barrier if this is technically feasable.

    Are there after market headrests suitable for this purpose, and has anyone seen it done or have any ideas about it. Any info. would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers,

    Lionel

    the simplest way i can think of wold be to find the headrests of your
    choice from somewhere(eg wrecker) and bolt a couple bits of angle iron
    to the milford at the right height to take the headrest. its only there to prevent whiplash to passengers in a rear ender which the milford will acheive anyway but it will a nice pattern in the back of passengers head.

    or you could just trim a piece of decent foam rubber(with or without a backing board) and just fix to the milford. this way you can match the trim to the seat trim.

    Do these seats improve leg room in the back? I did notice another post in relation to leg room.

    Regards

    No, they just raise the back of the original seats
