1994 Defender 110 300 Tdi CSW Alpine White

All this talk about being too high in the seats. I fitted some "slightly" comfier and definitely taller seats to my 110. It felt odd being so high up at first but after about a week or so it felt much nicer.

Wierd but since doing that mod I now find the driving position in my Full Fat too low and not as comfortable...

So if it feels tall just try it out for a bit and you'll be surprised what you get used to. I was convinced the 322 seats in mine were going to be too tall especially considering I can just about comfortably obtain full pedal travel. Sitting on the clutch in traffic though is a bit of a challenge but then again it usually is.

^ really depends on how tall you are...

As I explained before it is about your view out of the window getting blocked because of te higher seating position. I have the MudStuff rails installed for some months now, but I can not get used to the awkward view out of the sidewindow ...
So I'm going to cut the vertical lip and mount the seatrails some 5 cm back but not higher. Cheers, Vincent
