Jim,

I just added a two-person middle seat to my westy.  Then I added a
headrest to it by inserting the plastic headrest receptors into the top
of the seatback.

My understanding is that all seats have accommodations for these plastic
receptors.  Feel firmly along the top of the seatback and you'll find
two indentations under the padding.  Cut a 1/2" by 1/2" "X" at each and
insert the receptor.  Drive it home.

I got the headrest from a listmember.  I'm still looking for three more
grey in front/black on back "westy" type headrests.
