There may be an interference of the Mazda or MGB seatback with the
rear interior panel covering the wheelwell on a BJ8 such that the
seat won't go back as far.<br>

<p>Another option would be some late MGB seats. The headrest
telescopes so they can be put down when the car is parked. I
have a '77 that has a Victoria British seat cover set in it,
and they are quite attractive. I also have a '77 parts car
with very nicely redone original pattern seats. The issue,
though, is because the car was T-boned the passenger side seat
bottom frame is bent. Shipping could be expensive is you
aren't close to southern PA.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">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:</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">using guide tubes such as used in

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">and perhaps using this bracket
(or similar home-brew) to establish strength for the
bottom of the headrests:</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">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…</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Anyone else have other
ideas?....better ideas?.... actual experience?</p>
