Title: rear seat headrests - can't decide
Post by: nomad on July 12, 2008, 06:00:07 PM

Can't decide whether to do this or not. I like adding different things than others have but can't decide if they'll drive me crazy from losing visibility, or just won't seem right back there or if they'll look great. Not like they add a lot of weight or anything.

I think they look good in a convertible, not so much in a sedan unless you have a large luxo-barge, certainly not in a coupe, but that's just me.

Put two big styrofoam blocks back there and see how it impacts your visibility while you drive. Just don't use anything heavy...  :)

I passed them on, thought about it and agree that being a 2 door the rear will seldom if ever get used.

+1.  I also mulled over the possibility of rear headrests.  In the end I decided less is more.  

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you shoud.
