Ive acquired another pair of headrests to fit Im my 98 MPI as Im going to fit them in the back.
Before I set about doing this has any one else on here done this & if so how?
Any pics would also be great

It has been done and it was something i investigated during the my retrim. The ones i saw were attached to the metal seat backing as you have to install tubes into the rear seats to take the headrest rods, then the adjusters on top.

Yes I was thinking of attaching them to the metal seat back/bulkhead if theyll fit between the seat & rear bulkhead.

It might be thought that if someone seriously shunts the back of a Mini, the problem for anyone unfortunate enough to be sitting in the back will not be removed by a headrest or two! They will be sitting there with a battery and a fuel tank up their jacksey  :ohno: .

That's one hell of a paint job for the underside of a parcel shelf!
