Do I have the standard seat frame? (picture)

CalumM · Jul 19, 2012

I bought a Series 3 88 recently and somebody has fitted seats from another car in the front. They're really not that great a fit and aren't held in too well so I was going to get some from either a series or defender (they should all fit right?).
But I need to know if the seat frame is the stock one or has also been added in, hopefully I can get this picture to work!

Thanks!

I believe that is the "deluxe" seat frame complete with sliding runners, as opposed to the bog standard fixed seat rails, but yes it looks like the genuine article to me.

Looks like mine, so yes. Never managed to get mine to slide tho...

Ok thanks a lot. I had a quick search and it seems that only early 90/110 seats will fit, think that's right?

No standard or deluxe series cushions will fit those. Just specify adjustable

Britpart DELuxe (from Paddocks) will fit and look fine. Need UNF bolts. They seem reasonably comfortable - probably not as good as the original but I don't know if anyone elses are any better as decent foam seems difficult to get at the moment.

They have plastic material on the back - same as front. Sams Trim have carpet on the back - the ones I fitted for a customer seemed nice but to be fair the Britpart ones in my vehicle had done about 5,000 miles by then and so may have compressed a bit.

...Exmoor Trim (if you have the cash) - great quality products, but come at a price!!!
