Repro 69 bucket seat headrests

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Anyone pick up a set of the reproduction headrests that B/E&A are making?  They have auctions on ebay all the time & was wondering on the quality of them?

Ive never had a set in my hand, but Mike has told me lots of times that if you're not happy with something he sells hell give you you're money back .

 I  installed a set on my uncles 69 charger,and they look real good.We will see how they stand the test of time.

Can you tell me if they are injection molded or a vinyl covered foam like the originals?  Also is the chrome band flat or rounded?

I emailed B/E&A and they told me they are vinyl covered foam, have flat chrome bands, have the fake stitching like the originals & utilize a gasket at the bottom....sounds like a nice product....

Well it looks like I am little too late to answer your question on this.........LOL

So I guess you can confirm this no?

I wonder if they come in red?   

The original ones in my '68 are so hard now that I would probably be safer with whiplash. Hardens had some of the first repos at Monster Mopar and they seemed decent. That was several years ago and I don't know who there supplier was.

Say guys who is B/E&A?  Is there a website? is there email on there site?  Be nice to purchase a pair of  green ones sometime?  If they offer them in green that is?

I'll be darn...they have red ones.   

Speaking from experience I would guess that chances of a dye match are not very likely but still pleasantly surprised.

On a positive note, I received my headrests from Mike @ B/E & A    These babies are really nice!!

They are exactly like he described and are made well.   Nice injection molded vinyl with the correct flat chrome band...stitching & grain are dead on as well.


I haven't bought a nice part for the Charger in a while and this one fit the bill nicely!

PS---thanks Mike for the nice price!   

Pics to follow shortly!

now is only someone made all the stuff to convert my non headrest seat into one so i could use these headrests...that would be amazing

Thanks for the update Chris. It is nice to see another hard to find part being reproduced with quality.

B/E&A Parts = high quality and attention to detail.

the red avail in 1968 versus 1969 isn't even close to being the same color

If they pass the Chris test, that's good enough for me.  I'll put those on my long list.
