You can get them heated but I think it's a factory order

For the price I would not think there's any thing better on the market.

£1308 heated with subframes/sliders from LRI Solutions - £654 a seat.
https://www.lrisolutions.co.uk/h-b-white-s...0-110.html In the 3 years ive never had to "quickly" get to the fuses/ECU. Only time that seat has come out was to fit a boost box which was later removed. Fit an Anderson connector the other side, quick and easy. Still very comfy, zero wear & tear too.[/list] |

+ 1 for corbeaus. Recaros are very comfortable and have tip up bases but unfortunately the price tag reflects that (and then some)
We are running our Jan sale ending tomorrow night on Corbeaus that we have retrimed in full leather + they are heated and come with conversion subframes that bring you 1 inch in from the door. https://www.lrisolutions.co.uk/january-sal...-only.html Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge LRI Solutions Ltd

These have the high sided base some of the other firms do a low sided base ,on a high vehicle like a Defender it makes getting in and out a lot easier especially when your a old git like me

Hi Legin
The ones we have on Jan offer are the low base type. We also offer high base which are comfortable but as you say a bit more effort getting in and out. Pic below of high base Click image to enlarge LRI Solutions Ltd

Just can't get over the 1" move towards the tunnel the hand bake is well in the way now,been on the phone and they tell me you have to have the offset to fit the seat in,if that's true Corbeau are out of the question for me .

I've had mine in a couple of months now and not really noticed the offset or the handbrake getting in the way...

Hi legin We have not come across any issue with the hand brake before. We find it gives extra room on the door side not hitting your arm on the window/ door. We have them fitted to defenders if you are ever in East Sussex you are welcome to try them. Steve LRI Solutions Ltd

Hi Legin, I had Corbeaus and now have Recaros. With regard to the 1" move to the middle, unless you have weird and wonky legs I don't think you'll notice the change in the lower half. However the extra inch at arm/chest level is surprisingly noticeable and does offer that little bit more room. If you've not got a big chest/torso or long arms, perhaps not an issue, but I do and it was a bonus. Back to the Recaros and the proximity to the window is evident again. Recaros are, However, more comfortable. But as already pointed out, for almost double the money  Monsieur Le Grenadier
I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list..... 2011 Puma 110DC - Corris Grey |
