Default Seat cover for molded headrest bench?

Anybody know where to find an inexpensive seat cover for the solid bench seats with molded in headrests? I've been trying to cover it with a blanket, like hot rodder's do with Mexican blankets, but it just ain't working with those dang headrests. The cheapest I can find is about $70, but for that price I think I'd rather get a split bench or buckets from the junk yard and throw on some $20 seat covers...

I have no idea what you are talking about by "molded in headrests". I am unaware of any headrests that are molded on the 10th gen's.

What are you working on? You don't mention what your truck is.

Since I posted in the 1997 - 2003 F-150 forum I figured I didn't need to explain the make and model, it's a 2000 if that matters...
fordguy2100 got it.
Maybe I'll try cutting off the head rests so I'll be able to use a plain jane bench seat cover from here on out. It would just suck to get rear ended after that

only mine is in rougher shape.

Yes it does matter. The Super Crews, Expeditions, etc. have a different setup where the headrest is separate from the seat. I also believe some of the Super Crews have arm rests, and

Also, not everyone posts in the right section... so kudos to you for getting the right section.

This place is who I've known to have the "odd ball" sizes. You may want to see if they have a good fit for you: https://www.seatcoversunlimited.com

First thing I did when I got my 99 xl with that bench seat, was go to the local you pullit yard and grab a set of seats captain seats out of a 98 expy.
