Do any models in the i30 come with adjustable head rests? Would like to change mine.

Thanks for the replies.

Not sure whats meant by "FD" and "GD", but in my 2014 hatch the head rest only goes up and down.

If other movement is available on rests from another model it may be worth tracking a set down.

Would FD (what ever that is) rests  fit my 2014 5dr hatch?

FD is the earlier model shape, GD is the current.

Cmon Craig, FL is the first one, GD is the 2013/14 model. You're forgetting the 2015 :D

The GD models started in 2012, the new 2015/2016 model is still a GD :)

I was at a Hyundai dealer yesterday and there was a new i30 where the headrests were adjustable horizontal and vertical,  :goodjob2:  ...but the adjustment demanded way more force applied than on my old FD.
