HI EVERYONE,

I'VE BEEN TOLD THE ADR FOR HEAD RESTRAINTS CHANGED IN 2008 AND NOW REQUIRES A HEAD REST HEIGHT ABOVE CUSHION OF 800 mm - PREVIOUSLY 700 mm.

DO YOU HAVE ANY RECOMMENDATIONS?

AD GUY

This is correct. However the height is not measured by simply measuring the seat cushion to head rest. The ADR specifies a measuring point that simulates the height of the hip. I havnt yet found out the exact measurement but it is more like 800 plus about 65mm from bottom cushion for fixed head rest.

PS Stop yelling!
