Has anyone installed headrests on their factory bench?

My other alternative is to throw these in for the next few years https://shop4seats.com/truck-seats/40-20-40-truck-seats/high-back-40-20-40/santa-cruz-high-back-bench-seat.html Anyone have them and an opinion. -
Has anyone installed headrests on their factory bench?
So my son will start driving the 86 next year, and my daughters will be occasional passengers on the way to school. Wondering if anyone has installed headrests that reasonably match to provide a little protection? As a teenager and passenger in a square, we were backing out of a gas station... -

86-upgrading headlights keep stock look
i know there are some older threads on here on how to upgrade the light output. My goal is simple, upgrade the light output, keep stock look (no blue LED), and keep it simple. I am looking for high quality and easy to install. I don’t want Chinese eBay stuff and I don’t want to piece together...- poboy73

86 GMC 4” Rough Country to Deaver Springs 4”

Which 350 setup would you buy to replace your 305?
Figure out the approximate hp and torque you are looking for and order the 350 crate that matches up closest in your price range. As others said all the little stuff adds up in cost and time and also voids your warranty. That blueprint engine is 373/400 runs 87 octane and comes with 50,000...- poboy73
