    The interior guy told me that the Fiero seats are often used by rodders, and that they have an upper brace point where the headrest attaches to the seat back where they can be cut down. He shot me a ballpark price of $300 to $325 per seat for new covers in good vinyl. There's a place, Mr. Mike's, that does custom leather/vinyl for Fiero's and several others, and you can get really nice covers in leather-ette for $375, or leather for $750. Custom has low back, cheaper ones retain the headrest. Honestly I kind of like the idea of a headrest in the event of a rear end collision - been there in the '60's and remember the sore neck for days/weeks. However, the headrests will be clearly visible through the back window. Not sure I care, but still thinking.

    Headrests or no headrests??

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
