Fitting puma seats in 90
I recently bought a pair of puma forward facing rear seats and when looking for information about fitting them in my 90, I ended up here.
Thanks to this and this topic, I found most of the necessary information and part numbers. There is only one thing I can't seem to find and that's the dimensions for the wheel arch modification. I can do most of the fabrication myself (with help from some friends Whistle ), but without the dimensions that is rather difficult.
I could roughly guess them using the the interior trim, but having the correct dimensions would really help Very Happy .

The hight and width I can simply measure, so I only need the dimensions of the "lower part". I've put some red lines on a picture to show which dimensions I need.


If someone has these dimensions, that would help me a lot! Bow down

Only the shipping cost for sending a pair of those over here would cost me more than it would making them myself Wink . I work at a rather big company that mainly does fabrication so I already found most of the sheet-metal I would need "just lying around" sort of speak Whistle (and yes my boss knows it Wink ).

Combining that with being able to do most of it myself, I don't really want to spend a couple 100 pounds getting some prefabricated ones Whistle . Neither do I have a puma around (unless the shoes count, in that case I even have a pair) to take the dimensions from, otherwise I would have done that already Razz . And most people aren't that keen on stripping their interior for me just for some dimensions Razz .

At this side of the channel there aren't too many people who have fitted forward facing seats in the earlier Land Rovers, so I'm not finding much useful information here either. Confused
