David, I'd be interested to know how you plan to fit those MGB headrests. I have opted for an easier install that screws into the back of the seat which I believe is wood. There's a pic here
Adding headrests to 408???? but they are not installed yet. I suspect the MGB ones would probably provide better resistance to a whiplashing head.
