Hi David

I wrote one for the BODA magazine; others may also have added them. My 408 has a wooden seat frame - later 411s are steel I understand. I got MGB headrests and two old MGB frames. I cut off the metal brackets from the old frames. When my seats were being retrimmed, I got the Mgb headrests made up to match and the brackets fixed inside the frames, with holes put in the top of the seats. The MGB chrome escutcheons to make that look smart are easy to get on eBay.
