Head restraints

Post by Barrypud » Thu May 12, 2016 5:39 pm

We've just acquired our first Bongo and were wondering where we might find a head restraint for the rear seat which looks as though it never had one. I know some years ago it was possible to buy clip on ones for cars but that was before they became standard in all vehicles. Any help very much appreciated.

I made a pair of clip on ones using unwanted headrests I got from a Bongo converter. There's reference to them, and a pic, on this thread:

But first.......welcome, and enjoy the new Bongo :-)

Thanks for your reply and for the welcome! We're really looking forward to getting out soon once we've made a few adjustments to the van. I'll take a look at your handiwork and see if I can do the same.
