mooneykflyer Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 I may have asked this before but does anyone know where I can get a couple of head rests for my 231's bench seat? Thanks in advance.
Amelia Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 I think I have some that may have gone in a Toyota, but fit my 1980 231's seatback holes; they slide all the way down, no way to adjust that I know of. They work, but little primitive, perhaps. You'd want to recover them, unless you have a fondness for red and navy tweed. You'd be welcome to them- no charge.
jezzie Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 If you go to any auto wrecker that has a lot of Toyota's you should find a good selection. The seat back holes are 6" on center and it appears all Toyota's have the same measurement, I even found some leather ones. $5 ea. You will want to recover them with approved aviation leather or fabric
RJBrown Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 I have 2 stock 1980 231 dark brown leather headrests. These are leftover from a plane I sold 7 years ago. You are welcome to them. Here is a picture. PM me with contact info if you want them.
RJBrown Posted July 4, 2010 Report Posted July 4, 2010 MooneyKFlyer started this thread and I meant to respond only to him. They are his for postage only, if he wants them. They have been sitting in a 5 gallon bucket in my garage collecting dust for over a dozen years. I am happy to give them a home where they are wanted. Randy
mooneykflyer Posted July 4, 2010 Author Report Posted July 4, 2010 Randy, thanks. I do want them and have sent you a PM regarding the postage.
mranson Posted June 26, 2011 Report Posted June 26, 2011 I have a 1982 231 Rocket with fabric seats. There are no headrests but there are some aluminum caps where I think that hearests should slide in. Does anyone know if it is possible to remove these caps without taking the material off the seat? I would also like to know if anyone has some headrests that they would be willing to sell. I am planning on having the seats recovered in the near future so color is not a concern. Thank you.
N9937c Posted June 26, 2011 Report Posted June 26, 2011 I also have some if somebody needs them. The ones i have are just a pc. of tubing. larry
mranson Posted June 27, 2011 Report Posted June 27, 2011 Hi Larry. I sent you a PM about the headrests. Let me know what you have and whether they will fit my 231. Thanks. Matt
