I'm in the middle of updating my seats in a 1966 Comanche. I'm going again with Airtex but as you can see it's a little different than my first covering in 1992. Airtex has improved their contour foam and I'm going with fake leather this time. Still need to put the armrest on in the photo.

I never really liked the headrests as they sit too far back to really touch your head and seem a little flimsy. Does anyone have a fix? I'm experimenting with bolts to force the pivot forward so we'll see if that helps.

The second photo is the internal piper headrest mechanism.
