OK, call me paranoid but driving in the big city I can't help but think that someone is going to rear-end me and my head is gonna smack the rear window. I drive a 96 S-10 standard cab with 60/40 seats and the headrests stop about shoulder height. Has anyone seen an add-on headrest support or something that mounts to the rear window for added support and protection?

Thanks,

Haven't seen any supports, but my 2000 60/40 seats have headrest that come up like your wanting to have.

If safety is a concern you can possibly locate a set of these seats to put in your truck, it's a direct bolt in. They come up for sale quite often because people swap these out a lot for buckets.

I just bought some used leather seats that were exact drop-ins, so, great idea but not the direction I want. Maybe I'll wear a motorcycle helmet everytime I get in my truck. :haha:
I'm just keeping my eyes open on something that will do the job and look half way cool.

 

how tall are you? cuz i dont think there should be a problem with the headrest being to short.
seams like everyone want to get rid of them...

 

I'm 5' 10". The top of the headrest stops at my neck. I don't think these headrests slide up and down...at least I haven't figured it out, yet!

 

You could just swap seats from another car/truck

 

yup, check out 98+ they have an annoyingly talll headrest on both buckets and split bench. some 98+ blazers/jimmy/bravada have an adjustable headrest, adjusts height and also pivots forward so it actually supports your head, instead of being 4-5" behind you..

 

Hey guys..I have a 97 Chevy Blazer...do the head rest not go up..on these..I have tried to pull them up but with no success..any info would be greatly appreciated..thanks! Joe

 

hey man I have a couple of neck braces I will give you lol had to wear them for a year lol
