oh so there not from a nova! do "Ashtrays" have the same subframe as a nova?

[smcgsi16v]

You got me thinking now!

The head rests are throwing me, the seats are the same as an early SR Nova. Early Astras had solid headrests like the ones pictured, and they had the same style seats.

Don't know about the subframes, I think they might be the same you know. Don't quote me tho.

Yer, I havetn seen Nova seats with them headrest's. Headrest swap possibly?

Could be right there. Done to get rid of the horrible plastic style ones.

Just rang the bloke who i got them off. and the the bloke he got the seats from has owned an early SR and a Mk2 Astra SRi!:confused:. I really wanna know!

The seats are Nova items, there was 2 different designs of check for the brown Nova Recaros.
The headrests are from an early mk2 Cavalier SRi which were brown velour

I have a very rare pair of headrests from an early Mk2 Astra SR which match the brown material on the Nova Sport seats. I have only ever seen one other pair & I owned them aswell, I sold them with my old Sport.

[Novasport]

Yip.
I take it you don't have the rest of the interior

[BIGS]

i think tho's who have said the astra sri are right, im sure they came from them

[Novasport]

They used the same material in the very early Mk2 Astra SR, not the SRi.
Very rare tho, would put money on them being Nova ones.

[BIGS]

could you tell from something under the seat or something ?

[Novasport]

No, I just know my early Nova stuff ;)

[BIGS]

ah yea so was the headrest covers a option you could have or come with certain models?

[Novasport]

As said before, they are from a Mk2 Cav SRi. They had a brown version of the 88-91 Nova SR seat trim(Horizontal fades)

My saloon had headrests like those, I'd always assumed they came from some other Vauxhall though lol

[Steve]

Yep they're nova sr seats, mine have the yellow check which seem more common than the red check, as for the headrests, what everyone else said sounds right, although ive never seen them before, i'd always wanted to change the headrests on mine due to the std ones being so crap.

Would have used brown manta gte headrests but never found a set.

[DTR-DEVIL]

Wow, thanks for big response and yes Nova.sport i do have the rest! :D
