I bought new squabs (foam for the base) and my local motor trimmer (Darrin from Auto Trim in Murrurundi, NSW) fitted them with canvas covers directly over the foam for $130 each, as well as modifying the rivers side foam, making it a little longer for my thighs.

We'll do the seat backs one day too. (I have new Exmoor Trim foams for there too)

I have now ordered a set of seat covers from Melville & Moon ,South Africa, in 100% cotton. Nobody else does the same quality covers for a 90, AND do the rear jump seats too. Not one company listed, besides them, makes covers for the jump seats in a 90. That was a disapointing discovery. :(

There is some good news. :)
Black duck will make paterns for the 90 jump seats IF they get enough enquiries for them. All it takes is an email saying you want some but know they don't make them. If you don't do it, then there is no reason to complain that they aren't made in Oz. I know this because I made enquiries.

Please make the enquiry.

Thanks. :)

Phill.

Well done. Post some pics. I was just about to tell you that.

I have had the 7 seater 110, and nobody could do the rear jump seats apart from M&M or Escape.

Also, a friend had a Sth African visiting on the w/e, he saw the covers etc. I told him my M&M ripped, but probably due to salt water etc etc- anyway he was 99% sure they would have replaced them FOC. Too late but good to know.

You'll have a small amount of grief with the front seat bottoms- you won't be able to work out why- eventually the bases go in properly and then everything will be fine in the future. Persevere. I think it's just the thickness of the canvas at the back pushing the base forward that hinders the cross pun falling into the two grooves.

Melvill & Moon Order Seat Covers - Free Shipping with 3 orders or more

Just noticed if you order 3 of the same product on the Melville & Moon website, international shipping is free.

I am looking for a 7 seater set in Sand color for my 2015 defender. If anyone else in the Perth WA region is interested we can but a order together to save on shipping.

This reduces cost from $770 AUD down to $480 AUD.....Great deal.

:)
Send me a note if interested.

Thanks for the heads up. ...I'm interested in a 5 seat set (preferably grey) for 2014 Defender. But I'm in Victoria at the moment. Anyone else in Vic interested?

Be careful you don't get stung with import duties as the combined value will exceed the threshold...

No problem....
Looks like you can order different colours but has to be the same product to get the free shipping deal.

I'm interested in a 5 seat in the charcoal grey for a 2015 - am in Queensland but OK for it to be sent to Victoria and have friends collect it.

I don't. Some 'friends' tell me that they 'underquote' the cost of items when shipping internationally, to avoid paying excess duty though.
I of course, in no way condone this appalling behavior. I only pass it along for educational purposes.
