Thread: Replacement Defender Seats.

No, happy with the ones I have but, if you go onto the UK sites you will see there are plenty of options.

My mate has a 130 that is fitted with vinyle seats, my 110 has cloth trim. I think my cloth trim is just a litle bit softer than his vinyle trim.

Cant think of any of the sites in the UK off hand, but crab a UK LR mag, most large newsagents have them, you will find a number of trim suppliers and ideas in them.

Hope this helps.

We looked at a few Defenders before finding one with Recaros,
if it wasn't for the Recaros I doubt I would have HQ approval to purchase.

Its a work truck too, & will be spending a lot of time bush. Am in the process of getting some canvas covers made for them.

Volvo seats used to be the seat of choice. may be worth a try.

We have a 2002 110 & a 2004 D2 and without doubt the seats in my 110 are far more comfortable than those in my Wife's D2. Initially when you sit in a Defenders seat they do not feel the most comfortable & the opposite with out D2, when you sit in it they feel very comfortable, but if you spend a few hours driving the opposite happens the 110s seat feel better & better & the Disco's get more uncomfortable. If I am doing a log days driving I will take a Defenders seat over a Disco's any day.

I have taken some photos.

I think the passenger's seat in a standard vinyl Defender seat.

Perhaps the driver's seat is a later model Defender cloth seat.

I'm happy enough with the Driver's seat, but would like to replace the passenger seat to match the drivers seat, or just fit 2 matching later model seats.

My cloth seat look the same design as your passenger seat, at a guess, I'd say you have a late model defender seat in your drivers side, they are a bit bigger and have a bit more give. The standard cloth on mine does have more give than the standard vinyle. I did drive my mates 130 17hrs non stop once and got out good as gold. Have to agree with cols110 and on other experience, over a long distance a firm seat suits me better.

The driver's seat is fine, no problems with that.

The passenger's seat is not comfortable.

If I can confirm what the driver's seat is and get another to match I would be happy.

Exmoor trim do some pretty flash looking seats for Defenders, and they have removable bases, but they'll costya.

I think you'd have to import them. I don't know of a distributor in Australia.
