Hi guys, could be picking up some Audi a8 d2 recaro seats today, they're heated, electric full leather etc... And a good price!

All I want to know is if they'll be too big to fit in my defender truck cab? I've done a search but couldn't find anything...

It can be very long or it can be very short, or what you thought was string could turn out to be rope

Hard to know isn't it

I thought they'd be pretty chunky... I've said no anyway! Thanks though guys.
I've done some reading up on fitting different seats, is it just a case of bolting them to a box section frame and then securing that in place using nuts welded to the underside for easy removal?
