No one mentioned Scheelman seats yet?

Available in different finishes cloth, leather heated seats etc.

Also you can still access the battery box without completely removing the seat

Side support is very good, so good on twisting roads/off-road..

Comfortable as well.

You need to sit in them because what suits one persons body type will not necessary fit another person as well.

Eric, we do sit in Scheelmann seats on a regular basis as they are fitted in our white 90 White 90 does local runs, forays into Germany plus some green lanes.



Barbara and I normally use items ourselves before recommending them, that way we can talk from our own personal experiences. Occasionally we rely on the experience of some of our close friends who have used the items for their opinions.


We have some items fitted to our Defenders which are not readily available in the UK as we like to assess them for ourselves rather then just rely on manufacturers figures. Am about to place an order with a new supplier to us for some items to fit on our new 90. Only when I am happy with the items will we bring them into the UK to sell.


So in our various vehicles we have a set of Exmoor trim (not sure of model) about 10 years old, 2 sets of heated LR seats one set part leather, one set of Scheelmann seats and have a set of take off standard LR seats which we will either sell or use as a display if I ever get around to using them.

As I said before
