    130 back seat remod.

    Check it out, who would have thought that something good can come out of a VN commode.

    A pair of head rests and plastic tube inserts from a VN. Stripped the seat frames and miged in a mob of 20 mil steel tubes (heavy walled tent pole) in to the top rail. Punched out holes in the vinyl / foam and put it all back to gether. Ive also lifted the seat hight 45mil and added more tilt to the backrests, the boys are almost as comfortable as in the discos back seat.

    Looks great, loads cheaper than a puma...

    Got the fuel tank cut out yesterday, replaced the screws in the tail lights with ones the fit, and fitted some security bolts to the number plates.

    I pick up the bent tube this week and should have the side steps on this weekend.

    has anyone seen a two seat conversion in order that the middle seat is for a fridge, in the rear of a 130.
    utilising defender front seats is there a requirement for a bleedin' engineers certificate ??

    That would be very helpful !!!
    You could probably do it more easily just using two of the rear single seats (as already fitted x 1)

    Yes you'd need an engineering certificate.

    You've done a great job, but I'm more interested in converting the double seat in rear into a single so I have 2 singles. Finding a single rear seat is a bugger though.
