Having returned from our trip (just under 3,000 mi.) I will say that I like my '68 headrest a lot! The wife was happy too :) It did take some effort, and some A-bodies only advice, but was well worth it. I hope that having documented the process may help others as well. One small thing I would...

Oh, that's interesting. It looks like there are about 5 notches, and about an inch apart? I measured up from the bottom of the rods on mine, and figured one notch at 2-3/4" up would be just right for my head. Maybe make a couple of more right around there? Could be pretty sketchy trying to...

Oh, one question. I also was confused about the direction the spring clip faces concerning the notches cut into the stainless steel rods by the factory. The installation in my pics is correct, it's the only way they can go, and is seen in 65Vals pics as well. But the notches in my '68...

Thanks for the post 65Val, your pics really helped me out! Nice interior too (with correct for '67 headreststs). What I have done is only because I've had so much trouble finding a pair of '67 headrests, so is only a compromise at best. Now I get to hear every "car show genius" that walks up...

I still don't know how that odd third hole on the large black plastic part is oriented when installed. Does anyone know? I am about to install the seat kit this weekend and that would be good to know, but hey, it's a 50 - 50 chance right? Meanwhile, I did hack off the long rods from my brand...

Maybe one of the kids got tired of waiting for the inheritance? Easy inside job, at least easy to get in over your head!

Sorry for all the posts, but there is yet one further mystery... what is that third small hole in the large black plastic part, and how is it oriented on the seat?

That was it! Now, to actually do the work, ha ha! It will be slow, as there just aren't enough hours in the day. I will post as progress occurs.

Or maybe they go with the metal clip and two screws, mounted from below?

The lower picture of the '67 bench headrests has two brown oval pieces which may go directly under the chrome bezels as guides? If so, maybe that's what my smaller black pieces do also? I'm at work now, but will have alook when I get home later. Thanks Mattax!

Thanks Super-Cuda, One huge problem I've had is just not knowing what fits what. I did see a couple of '67 C-body headrests on ebay, but they were very expensive and worn out. I passed on them since I didn't want to "spend good money after bad" as they say. I did try to get B-body headrests, as...

Having been unable to find '67 headrests for my '67 bucket seats, I have decided instead to convert a set of new PG Classics '68 bucket seat headrests to fit my '67 seats. Maybe it's been done before, but I don't see any mention of it, so here's what I am doing. I have ordered the '68 headrests...

Mancini advance is from Tony's. Was swiftly shipped too!

Stunning service bulletin halifaxhops! I'm still wondering about that one. Maybe just the thinnest layer spread with my pinky finger? I struck out this time with Napa, but I have ordered the correct vacuum advance for this distributor from Mancini Racing; Mancini Racing Distributor Vacuum...

Oh man, what a roller coaster ride! If this keeps up I'm going to need some drammamine, lol! At least I had an afternoon of believing I was the right color. It was nice while it lasted... I also realized, after carefully relieving that area of interference on my vac advance with pin grinder (it...
