    No dave that was my other trim, its in rickys (nastynova) car. No random naughty sluts in my nova now, you would have to be a contortionist to do anything in fixed buckets

    I put them in this way to make them sit lower, and plus i dont want anybody raising the headrests in the back cos it will look stupid.

    And Alan, was it you who sold Ricky the GTE interior ? i want first dibs on everything you sell in the future

    The scrapyards round here have already got my mobile number incase any novas come in.

    You ideally want a gap between the headrest and back seat

    My inserts don't sit completely flush with the seats but they are fully functioning; They lock into place and can be adjusted:

    Sit bang on line with the front headrests when looking in the front or back window

    If you haven't already, change your back headrests to Corsa B items as there a bit thinner and enable you to see more out the back window from the mirror

    Yeah ive got Corsa B ones in the back and astra ones in the front.

    Im not too keen on the gap in between though, maybe an inch gap maximum would be alright, but meh im not bothered, there in and they dont wobble about so all is good.

    I just got a big drill, straight through the fabric, through the metal and mine fit perfect.

    Your way isnt really the proper way of fitting.

    Aye, the plastic plugs should be visible for it to be 'right'.

    There is no "right" way of doing it because they werent meant to be put there otherwise vauxhall would of put them there themselves.

    My way of doing it is just MY way, rather not shove a drill bit through my seats thank you very much.

    And i can put the plastic insert at the top if i want to but i wanted them underneath so they dont stick out and look out of place.
