You would need a defender firewall & have to modify the roof as the series windscreen is lower.
Basically the doors & rear part of the cab fit pretty well.
I did use a series cab on a County.

You know the routine.

Series 2/3 panels off a 109 are basically the same dimensions as the equivalent panels on a 110. Major exceptions are the windscreen/roof join and the bonnet - except for the stage 1 bonnet.

Another problem is the location of the wheels. Both front and rear axles are further back on the 110, but it is likely that the cutouts for the wheel flares will cover this.

To meet the ADRs for a Defender, it will be necessary to use a number of Defender bits or get engineering approval for things like door locks, dashboard, etc. (This will also rule out, for example, Series 2 door and windscreen hinges.
