[Discovery seats into Defender]

Anyone tried fitting Disco II cargo seats into Defender?

Thanks for your help it's a great starting point

[Seat belts]

If the seat frame is strong enough and fixed securely to the floor, then you could use the rear frame of it as an achor point in much the same way as the rear bulkhead mounting on a series vehicle.

Reel on floor, opposie end on rear of seat, then down in the usual way - across lap and down from shoulder to the lock mechanism, which is fixed to the floor on the opposite side?

Just an idea and how I think I would do it.

Thanks Les. Using the chair would certainly make life easier.

Would your knowledge be able to pint me in the right direction for a suitable belt?

Cheers

[Seat belts]

I've removed the old bench seats from the LR and would like to add one forward facing load space seat.

I am aware of the dangers of using a lap belt and as the seat will be used mainly by a child I would like to install a 3 point belt.

My LR is a canvas top so the only reliable high anchor point would be the roll bar just behind the centre bulk head. This would mean mounting the seat to face to the rear.

My questions are:

1) Can I mount a 3 point harness on a canvas top car by just using the floor for anchor points?

2) Has anyone a simpler solution?

Thanks in advance

If you don't have a trailer, fit the roof and put soft top in back for drive back. Take about an hour to remove soft top and fit roof.

I did think about that but assumed it would take far too long to do.

A friend is now going to trailer the car back for me but that is very useful info.

Many thanks

My Land Rover ilness started with "of course the Discovery is a practical and economical vehicle darling" to "I don't care what the 90 looks like I'll buy it, I'll buy it...."

I am now the proud owner of a 1986 D90 soft top. However I am collecting the original roof with the car and would like to know how wide and long it is (for transportation purposes). If anyone could help I would be most greatful.
