Opinion: GSi with rear headrests?

[BENJIEGSI8v]

Hi guys, would like an opinion of if I should keep my rear head rests in my GSi?

Cheers

Yes. Makes the seats match and looks good, nice spec too.

[LEWI007]

Only if they were put in MY way lol lol

[Benn]

Oh god please no^

Fail IMO. They should be smaller than the fronts, otherwise it looks wrong.

I always think rear headrests look wierd in a Nova. And unless you often have passengers in the back who use them, then they are just an obstruction to your view.

if they are fitted correctly, and the nova had allready been modified
then yes, but on a original nova gsi then i'd say no

Think you might as well leave then in as the guides will still be on show

Or if you've followed Lewi's 'how to' you won't be able to do anything but leave them in lol

[BENJIEGSI8v]

I haven't put them into the guides. They are slipped behind the parcel shelf and the back seat. :) No one has ever noticed. But they do look a bit big for the back.

[L14MNP]

They definitley look too big. lol @ no guides, that's almost as bad as Lewi. True 90's flava tho!

If they were better known as their correct name of head restraints and not head rests, I wonder if people would take them a little more seriously? lol

I dont think they should.. Matching looks better.

Have you driven with some? I've never found mine get in the way at all.

I like them matching.

They come like this as standard in a Lotus Carlton

Keep :)

And my olf SRi corsa had the rear head rests fitted your way :P

Like what?

[L14MNP]

The Nova is too small to have them matching IMO. Smaller solid ones trimmed in the same material would look 1000000000000% better. I am yet to see this on a Nova. Running fronts in the back looks what it is, a bodge (IMO).

[Benn]

But the space above the rear seats is huge...
