I'm purchasing a defender wagon soon and will need rear seats for it.
What lenght would i need 83cm or 120cm.
It will be a 93 to 95 model.

ummm, you mean a 3rd row of seats presumably? Did you have the sideways facing ones in mind?

That was the plan. I want to convert it into a 9 seater

I believe you will want to get the 83cm ones, but I would check with your local authority as to whether you will be allowed to fit them. Somewhere around that date the side seats ceased to be an option for the Defender, apparently because they no longer met newer ADRs.

P.S. - the longer seats have never been fitted in Australia, being intended to make a 12 seater to fit a loophole in UK tax law.

If you need some seats, I have the seats sitting in my shed. I converted mine from a 9 seater to a 5 seater.

I have a 9 seater county and added 4 sideway facing seats to the trailer so big trips with the wife and 3 kids were bearable. You have to slow down on corners and technical offroad sections though
