Default concrete headrests

What the hell are you resting your head for? Your driving a Jeep...not staying at a Holiday Inn Express!!!


I'm just kidding.... The guys with seatglovers was looking at making neoprene covers with more padding actually. Check out the thread and chime in.

I'm sure a good upholstery shop could re-stuff and recover them nicely.

I wouldn't doubt theres some slate in the headrests.......as it's not fun to work with trying to get our kids booster seats in the proper position or even recline alittle with the piece of rock. So I am just going to watch and listen to some suggestions.

They are pretty damn hard, i kinda wish the whole seat was that material so its easier to wash.

I saw someone on here who put a piece of 3/4" foam under their seat glover's headrest, and I've bought the parts to do it under mine.

Also, I think the spacing is the same as Mopar minivans, so you could find some of those on flea-bay.

soon all new vehicles will have headrests of stone.. they dont hurt as much as you would think in a crash.. but they are the new standard in seat compliance,, just a few years early.. The seatcover with foam added does work.. works well,,
