    You mentioned the Exmoor trim rear seats, i think you should also review the Exmoor front sports seats too. They are way way better than those awful britpart seats, have an option for heating and most importantly, have removable bases.... And lets face it, any defender must have removable bases as owners are in there every 5 minutes. Thanks

    The seat box on a defender reclines. You are meant to use the larger spacers on the rear to counter it so it make the seat level

    No information regarding fitting in a landy with a rear bulkhead?

      These will both fit fine in a defender with a bulkhead as they work off the same mounting positions

      @@LRLiveUK I didn't phrase my question properly, is there one that's "shallower" than the Other? Being 193cm I can't really afford losing space due to a thick backrest.

      @@FreddyFerris They're actually slimmer than the standard seats so should give you some extra room. Also, with the Sparco set up you can raise the base up so that the rails clear the rear ridge that usually stops the seat going back fully. Obviously depends on how you have your seat set up. If you recline heavily then you will be a bit limited. I'd definitely recommend a bulkhead removal bar if you're struggling.

    So seemingly neither allow access to boxes beneath the seats....🤔
    Seems a bit stupid/short sighted...

      No, thats a big draw back.

      @@LRLiveUK I realise my original comment seems quite harsh, "draw back" is probably a much fairer way of putting it.
