Seat Risers from Exmoor.
I have Def 90 Stw -05, it is the fifth in a row of Defenders I have had over the years and it runs great. However, I find that the seating position is lower than on the others rides I had, 110 CSW and 110 Crewcabs. Also the wife have the same opnion (for once)
I have seen that Exmoor trim has a "seat riser" Has anyone here any experience with them ?

Many greetings from an arctic Sweden.

I have just fitted the seat risers to mine. They were about £55 plus the dreaded.
Great to be that little bit higher and the seat goes back further if you require.
I acquired mine from bearmach

Mudrails are superb and a bit cheaper too!

Not being very tall, I didn't need to get further back. My seat risers - of the hard nylon spacer variety - were about £4.00 inc P&P to do both front seats. Very Happy Thumbs Up

Get hold of a RRC hand brake and talk, you can fit these on your seat box without any changes to the cable and you have a hand brake in easy reach. there are links on the forums with this mod.
