Headrest Guts/Accessories Needed!

Reupholstering seats and the guts that hold the headrest shaft have disintegrated. There is a rectangular plastic piece that the shaft fits into. Inside of the set itself is the guts that hold the headrest. I know it sounds stupid but dont know the name.

I need both sides so to do the proper reupholstering job.

Re: Headrest Guts/Accessories Needed!

No Problem !

That piece pictured above ( call it a "track" ) is mounted to the front seat back-rest frame by a rivet. I seem to remember a clip, the retaining-clip might also be mounted by same rivet too. ( It's been a long time since I've been inside a seat ! ) It should be mounted to the frame before the seat cover is installed.

This is really the only other piece:



This head-rest trim covers the hole for the head-rest post in the fabric and is screwed to the top of the "track" with Philips-head screws.

Hope that helps !
