You can remove the rails from inside the seats that the headrests fit into on a car that has them (W108, etc.) and then remove the seat covers from your coupe. Use the W108 seat setup as a guide how to fit the rails to your coupe. You will basically only need to rivet in the rails, but you also drilled the rivets out of the rails on the donor car so you will see where they fit exactly. This allow you to keep your original W111 seats and you simply need to cut holes for the chrome posts to fit into the top of the seat covers. You can get plugs to fit in here to make it look factory. If you ever needed to make the car totally original you would only need new seat covers with no holes in them.
