Hi Tim,

These can be bought new along with the appropriate fitting kit in a choice of colours from Nordicar in the Netherlands (www.nordicar.com) - see page 2 of their online parts photos for an idea of their appearance. If you email Frank (parts@nordicar.com) he'll quote for them as well as for postage to the U.S. He had them in stock earlier this year so I guess he still does. It might be worth mailing Mikael at cvi-automotive (info@cvi-automotive.se) for a quote as well and see who's cheaper - they're not listed in his parts list but they should be available. They may be cheaper on ebay so it boils down to price and whether the ebay ones will match your upholstery. You can always buy the ebay ones and buy new replacement vinyl covers from either of the above. I think that the part numbers for the headrests and fitting kits are :
680126 - headrest
672020 - outer sleeve
672021 - inner sleeve
672017 - washer
672016 - nut
672018 - lock sleeve
672015 - nut

Obviously there being two legs per headrest you'll need quadruple quantities of the nuts, washers sleeves etc. Best to quote your chassis number as well to clear up any doubts about the suitability of the seats for this conversion.

Hope this helps - let me know if you need any more info.
