Thanks to everyone for the suggestions on buying parts at a discount.
I’ve another question: Has anyone installed headrests in the Healey 3000?. I’ve a BJ8, my wife would like headrests. Is there a kit suitable for adding headrests to Healey seats?.... I’m tempted by this arrangement:

using guide tubes such as used in this video:

and perhaps using this bracket (or similar home-brew) to establish strength for the bottom of the headrests:
https://www.npdlink.com/product/bracket-accessory-sport-seat-headrest-to-fit-on/105113/200167
My thoughts involve welding captured nuts into the existing metal seat back frame. Then fabricating a bracket assembly that can be mounted to the seat back into the captured nuts….and have the whole headrest attachment something that can be added/removed as the mood fits the situation…
Anyone else have other ideas?....better ideas?.... actual experience?
Thanks
