** I'm just too fricken tall for the headrests to be useful if they're needed ** in a crash from the rear. Headrest currently comes to the middle of my neck, ** and that isn't going to do anything for whiplash. ** I'm 6 ft. weigh 230 (a lot of it around the middle) so take that into ** consideration if you comment on comfort.

Have you tried pulling the headrests up a bit? It looks funny, but will keep your head out of the back seat if you're rear-ended. After moving my front seats back an inch (per Mustangworld's mod sheet), I almost ended up with too much room, and I'm 6'0"/2xx myself.

Warmest regards,

Appreciate the inputs.

Durned things won't lift any higher than 1 inch and thats too low. Being as I opted for the OEM cloth rather than leather because I'm definately going to improve the interior. I'm more inclined to pull the stock ones out and replace with something else. I don't know as yet with what.

On that note.......anyone with some links to some good aftermarket seats?

Most of the parts classic Mustang catalogs have aftermarket seats so you could check 'em out online at places like

national parts depot, etc. Might check the ads in various auto magazines. Some makers are Scat, Flowfit, Recarro.... a Google search she get you to outfits which carry the lines.

You can always shim the seat mounts to lift the driver's seat up a bit.
