try a length of 2x4 with all edges beveled, holes drilled @ all posts, and use the nuts upside down with a fender washer for adjusting the height. Also cover with I/O carpet. Screw some spacer blocks to the bottom to keep it stable. this should be a quick and cheap do.

oops --- screw the nuts all the way down, slip the 2x4 over the posts and adjust the nuts if needed then set the adjusting blocks.

Nice job mike. I really do wish GM would consider making everything flat like every other mid sized SUV on the planet. But then again, I wouldn't want to loose anymore ground clearance underneath.

ORIGINAL: dilo2001gt

How did you get the H3 sticker to stick on the headrest mine would not.
I cleaned the back of the headrest off with a vacuum, scrubbed it clean, and then used duct tape to take off all the extra lint. Then I very carefully placed them on the back of the headrest and smoothed them off with my finger just enough to make them stick. Eventually the adhesive sticks to the fabric. I think it just takes time for it to settle in there. If you just squish them on there, they will bend and fall right off.

Thanks for the advice willie. I think I'm going to do that. I'll probably go pick up a 2x4 or even a 2x6 and make that little rest. I hope that doesnt make an imprint in the entire seat lol.

I know what you meant about the indentation skeet. I am aware of that. I was hoping it would come out after I'm done but it doesnt look like it's going to huh? I wonder if you soak it with cold water and take a dryer or a heat gun to it if it will shrink back into place. It's a long shot but worth a try. Although you could burn up your fabric.

Looks to me like you could lay a 2x6 across that area and just drill out for the studs..Surely Mike, at your new house there is some scrap lumber laying around.
