Hello folks!

So I've won myself a full set of genuine LR seat covers VCF500020 (front) & VCF500040 (rear). The instructions for the rear make sense, but the fronts have me confused as to why I have spare ?headrest? covers and what instruction 4 is referring to.

Can anyone with some experience shed some light?

Cheers and Merry Christmas!

Crash

Instruction 4 looks like you tuck the flap into the seat gap between the back and the base to hold the seat cover tight.
Some vehicles have 4 head rests some have 5.

My TD4 SE FL1 facelift had 5 head rests, actually my FL2 TD4 SE also has 5 head rests too.

I would imagine that most of the ones that had 5, only have 4 installed to give better rear visibility.

Maybe I'm being presumptuous there - maybe we need a poll to see how many prefer better visibility and how many prefer the vanity of having all 5 installed.

Can we not?!!!
Only 2 headrests needed in the back for social distancing. Boris has more but they are not really there, they are virtual headrests providing IT support.

Thank you gentlemen.

However the front set of seats came with 4 presumably headrest covers. And the rear set came with 3 headrest covers.

These are separate sets. So who has 4 headrests in the front of their vehicle?!

Perhaps different shape covers for pre face and facelift headrests?

That'd be it. Compare shapes!!
Not many 4 headed Freelander drivers about.

Right then the fronts are on and they are a damn good fit.

Anybody want a set of pre facelift headrest covers?
