i did not use this kit. but on saturday i replaced the driver rear seat foam only.
got it from exmoor trim. perfect fit . and not a hard job.
so if it is only the foam just replace the foam. 110 xs s/wagon

I used OEM Landrover retrim I'm very happy with them, lovely finish and very comfortable Thumbs Up
Give Phil a call he's very helpful and he'll look after you! (Mention your from the forum Thumbs Up )

Presume that is oemlandrover's sport seat conversiom kit ButchersBoy?

I got the same - can't recommend it (or oemlandrover) highly enough - it is 'factory'. 2002MY Defender 90 H/T

Re: seat retrim kit
Yes, I got that kit from Paddock Spares. Had it fitted by a local upholsterer. He commented on how well it all fitted.
Seat now looks like new.

What was the full cost if you don't mind me asking? My drivers side back rest is shot at, the foam is curling around to the back now, those seats in the pictures look very nice indeed 👍

I have been looking to do this too Sylvan, here's the kits...

https://www.paddockspares.com/da5677e-2007...-mesh.html

Or if only foam is required which is what I'm thinking of doing here's the cheapest that I can find.

https://www.lrparts.net/hga500500-seat-foa...-seat.html

Although I have watched a few YouTube videos and can see that it is pretty straight forward, I really don't want to do this myself. Trying to find someone locally to fit for me. I tried one place so far and they quoted £660 - LABOUR ONLY!! Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

They’re not that bad to do, hardest bit is clipping the bottom seat back together on the bottom of the back cover.

I think the exmoor kits are better quality and worth the extra money.
