Since the cloth headrests don't come off I made my own that just cover the existing ones. I found a local auto upholsterer that I was able to get the stock GM material which I sent to Bob aka 1BADBIRD and he embroidered them for me :D . I also had to send a high-res pic of the "formula" so the embroiderer could digitize it. I made a pattern while Bob had the material and when he shipped the fabric pieces back I sewed it up. Then I had to do some final "nip and tucking" to the covers. I think they did a really great job of the embroidery and the "Formula" looks just like the badges :cool:
