I have two of these in ok shape...they are cracked but will work. So I need at least two, but would like 4 in nice condition.

They are the guide grommets that insert at the headrest pole inserts. See pic below. These are nla from Toyota. I imagine they are becoming a rare piece, but hoping someone has some.

I think I've got 4 in brown in my parts car, but I'm not sure how to get them out without damaging them. Any tips?

I've got 4x brown ones in my parts car, but I'm not sure how to realize without damaging them. Any tips?

 

[Curtice]

awesome! I cannot remember how to get them out...could be I only have 2 because I broke the other two . Let me go look at my seats right now that are apart a bit and see if there is a trick. thanks!

 

[Curtice]

From what I can tell, it will just need to pop off. There is a small ridge on each side of the “cylinder” that holds it down, as seen in this picture....appreciate any help if someone knows!

Ok, I'll give this a go between now and the weekend and see what happens. Seems like a good part for somebody to 3D print if anyone has the know-how...

 

[Curtice]

Thank you. I thought the same thing.

If you are getting all 4 could I take your old ones? If so how much?

 

[Curtice]

Happy to, assuming I get a set of 4 from someone. I'm also looking at the 3D printer option.

Those don't look like the right ones for this year. Maybe those are for like 79 or later?

 

[Curtice]

Yeah those are not correct. I have a 1980 FJ40 that I can look at later to see if those work on that one. But not what is needed for my 1978. I edited my OP to state the year. Thanks tho!
