Puma seats into a TD5
Don't worry not a how to question.

Just a suggestion for anyone with a TD5 or older defender. I strongly suggest fitting some Puma front seats. I've fitted front pair into my 110 and wow what a difference. Comfier, better seating position etc. I've even managed to ditch the extended seat rails as I no longer need them

Best mod I've ever done to mine.

Mate did that as well, I originally thought ' Censored cant be that much better!' Christ was I wrong, it really is a big difference.

Can you tell me more about that seat mods. What is better in puma seats. I have thought those are about same front seats in puma and td5. I dont like my td5 seats and I have thought to buy scheelmann or recaro seats but now first I will hear more about puma seats. defender 110 td5 2006

I seem to be alone in finding the latest Puma seats uncomfortable. Seat base is too shallow and I get a pain in the rear after long journeys. On my old Td5, I refurbished the worn out seats with new sponge when I fitted heaters. Made a world of difference.

Get some premium seats in - they are super comfortable and supportive.

I got a cheap pair of knackered puma seats, stripped them to the frame and bought the premium seat retrim kit from oemlandrover.

By the time I sold my td5 seats and my puma seat covers I think the new seats owe me about £350. 2002MY Defender 90 H/T

100% worth the effort for the heated Puma seats. Love mine! It really makes the interior feel more modern, and comfortable.

Are these front seats Puma seats? They look the same as my worn 2003 td5 seats. Roel

Fronts are indeed Puma, 2015 seats, factory heated. They came from a forum members truck, (thanks grizz!) had about 200 miles on them. it's a Landrover thing...
