...halo headrests that is

Undecided if these would be a cool addition or not. Always liked these on Mustangs especially 'verts.
Now the other challenge is getting a dye to match the LE seats! Ordered up the "99-00 Dark Charcoal" vinyl dye from Late Model Resto...no good...waaay too light!
Emailing Nathan from LMR back and forth about getting the right color. he's stumped. Checked the SEM catalog & tried their 17083 Dark Charcoal in their Classic Coat line (this is a Ford color)
Still no good....darker than the LMR but still too light.
These seat colors are not black either. Looking at the pic I painted them a combination of the SEM 17083 and their Landau Black...still wrong.

Maybe I should just "leave it alone" with the stock headrests!!

I too hate the stock headrests, I have seen the halo headrests and know they fit, but my mind tells me they are the wrong era. So I am not crazy about them. I do have my eyes out for a set of Mach 1 headrests which are much larger from 03-04, and i understand they are a direct replacement. So thats the route i plan to go.

I was just telling my wife the other day that i hope i dont get rearended in this car as there is no support in these seats.

I don't like the short stock headrests either, but its not as noticable in coupes as vert's. I love the halos, but I'm like eyespy, they will always be a fox body era look. However the seat do need some additional height.
The mach's would help.


You could always paint the halos silver.....


RICER!

Those are hideous, sorry. Get the newer mach 1 head rests or 03/04 cobra ones.
