I’m looking for upgrades for my recently purchased Disco 2, but I’m having trouble finding any sites that cater to it.
I can find plenty of options for Defenders, but Discovery upgrades seem to be hard to come by.

I’ve primarily been looking for interior trim and seat options (nicer cubby boxes, dashboard, steering wheels, heated seats etc) but there doesn’t seem to be much choice.
Other than that I’ll be looking for the usual stuff, light guards, sidesteps, front bull bar, rear bumper etc.

Where do you guys buy your stuff?
Will the defender stuff also work in a Disco?
I doubt it but it doesn’t hurt to ask.

My end goal is for it to be a capable off roader when necessary, but also for it to ferry camera kit and crew around in relative comfort, hence the need for the inside to be a comfortable place to be.
 
Interior upgrades for discos are going to be slim to nil, mainly becasue unlike the defender they are a pretty comfptable place to be as std.
Heated seat kits on ebay
Light guards are a pita, they make cleaning difficult and they get caught on branches and get ripped off causing damage.

Basiclally some decent tyres and you will be good to go on practically any disco D1 to D4
 
That's a bit annoying there's a lack of interior trim options.
Mine is looking tatty and in definite need of replacement.
The seats have ingrained dirt and more than a few rips, and I'm not keen on the fabric anyway.
Same with the cubby box between the driver and passenger seat.

Basically it all just looks old, tired and well used.
I'll keep hunting
 
There's always people selling leather seat sets on ebay from breaking cars, together with the matching door cards & centre console / switches for the typically standard heated seats & full electric fore / aft & height adjustment.
 
Thanks guys, I’ll keep an eye on eBay and see what pops up.
Are there any seats from a different model/make that would fit?
I don’t imagine the backseats are interchangeable, but the front seats maybe?

Alternatively I see a lot of leather look seat covers for sale on eBay.
Does anyone have any experience of these, are they any good?
 
Exmoor trim do front seat restoration kits for the dscovery 1 but don't do them for the discovery 2. I wouldn't be too bothered if the cloth wasn't an exact match as long as it was a similar colour.

I think you will find a D2 seat is a D2 seat regardless of what its covered in, so pretty sure if you buy the whole interior from any D2 it will fit another D2 regardless of spec, only thing I can think of that may be an issue is any wiring for the seats.
I would avoid any non genuine covers.
Heated seat elements on the other hand can be any make but the carbon ones are good, the wire stlye type take to long to heat up.
 
Interior from a higher specced model would be best bet.

Apart from that a remap and decent tyres
