As it was soo cold outside today I thought I'd be brave see what parts of myself would fall off whilst I'd play witb the car, luckily nothing did but I was glad to get back indoors, well into the garage by the heater stripping paint off an MGF bumper :)

anyway, todays task I replaced my rear seats with some head rested ones as I love the look of the head rest in the back as it makes it look more executive and classy ;)

heres the before and after pics for you, tooks the pics before I cleaned the seats hence the off patch of dust etc :)

Yes they do look 'complete' with them fitted. I was thinking of removing the seats to give it that track day look ;) saves weight and stops the back seat drivers taking over :laugh:

Headrests seem to be the hardest things to find for the zs's. I have been searching for about 6 months now with no luck from anywhere, not in the pattern i am after anyway!

I must have been very lucky to come across these then :)

I first wanted some when I took a workmate to look at a simular zs120+ hatch, which he did buy, that has the blue/yellow check pattern(Matrix) and that has rear head rests, so becasue of that I've been jealous of him for the past few years. But now I also have some :)

Next modification to the interior is the grey alcantara trim :pimp:

I could have got some from EMS as the bloke I got my extreme spoiler off phoned me to say he was there and did I want some. Sadly I had just spent £145 on the spoiler then still needed to get it sprayed and fitted so said not to bother as I didn't have the money, wish i'd said to get them now!

Why didn't you just fit them to your existing seat? its easy and they do look great.:smart:

By any remote chance, do you think they could still be available?

No I asked EMS recently and they said they had none left and would not be getting any more :no:

Yep, i was going to buy some black rear headrests from a 45 but decided against it as i want them all to match...

T2o reasons, 1 is that I didn't want to take the seats appart incase something could have broke as I want to keep the original seats just incase i need the, and 2 is that it was too bloody cold to do something like that on the day and now they're in the they're staying in :)
