Swapping front jump seat for a cubby box, easy?

For anyone with a front jump seat, or looked closely at one, does it look a straight forward job to whip out the jump seat and replace it with a cubby box. I like the look of the 90 FE but have absolutely no use for the jump seat. I could live with the canvas sunroof but not the extra seat.

Thought oh wise ones out there?

I deleted the cubby box on mine but there appears to be bolts where the cubby box should go, no idea about the seat though.

I’m wondering if the seat bolts into the same holes.

I’m wondering about disconnecting the seatbelt pre-tensioner - might give you a permanent SRS fault light on the overhead SRS status display which would be annoying.

2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

Didn’t think of electrical issues as no airbag but that could well scupper that.

I don’t have a Defender yet, just asking the question in case I do end up going for a 90 FE.

Pull a fuse or a jumper wire would probably take care of that?
