Source for EVC Winnebago-specific parts (headrests)?

[formerknuckledragger]

Our 2002 EVC came to us missing headrests for the rear bench. I've scoured the classifieds here and over at vwvortex, and have searched ebay with no success (the "hit" at ebay looks super sketchy). The folks over at Winnebagoparts (.com) don't stock these, and I can't find them at GoWesty or Eurocamper.

Any leads for other parts sources? Am I out of luck for something like this?

[formerknuckledragger]

I might have a line on a pair of headrests from an MV rear bench. Does anyone know if the headrests from an MV bench are cross-compatible with the EVC rear bench?

[Itsamoto]

AFAIK -- they are not compatible - the rear bench is 100% winnebago.

Thanks! And yes, emailed the GoWesty sales team yesterday. Haven't received a reply yet, but they seem like a busy crew.

Call John at JDB imports in Denver. He's got headrests and I bet he'll ship some out to you.

Thanks, and will do.

JDB Imports has them, confirmed. Thanks for the recommendation!

[formerknuckledragger]

JDB Imports is awesome. Great price for two headrests (unavailable from Winnebago, GoWesty, Eurocamper, Winnebagoparts.com) shipped almost immediately.

Is there some sort of "Excellent Eurovan Vendor" list or sticky? This would have saved me a ton of time...and hopefully will save the next headrest seeker as well.

Just called JDB Imports and unfortunately they're all out of these headrests. I'm looking for a rear set for a 1997 Winne. Anyone know of another source? Any help would be much appreciated!

Figured I’d bump this thread to give some context. Hope that’s okay. I’m about to take delivery of a 95 manual EVC that is missing rear headrests.

There’s got to be something out there that will fit, even if not original equipment. Right?

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I just dig through this thread as I am also looking for a set of these magic headrests which my wife really wants to have at hand incase we are more than 2 in the van. Looks like JBD is not the source anymore. Any other potential pointers?

Hole distance is 120mm btw.

Thanks, Georg
