Sorry it has been a while No it did not fit. So I used tie wraps. 2 on each hook and tied to the seat frame. this has worked fine. my mate with a simmilar car had the same trouble a month later, he used metal hooks and lengthened the rods. Both are working fine, and both are mutch comfier than the original. I am changing to a TD5 in the near future, but my dad is having the car off me, hopefully will last a while.

Update. I went to the local LR dealer. They sell the seat base for a 300Tdi as a whole unit for £250.00 but they do sell the diaphragm ( think thats what it is called) for the electric seats for £17.00 so hopefully it will fit, if not I will make it fit. K

I was struggling to describe it. I mean the canvas square that clips with metal hooks into the seat frame and holds the foam seat base cushion up off the floor. I will ring exmoor tommorrow i have the chance of a 200tdi seat, if the pad is the same I can swap them over. if not i will have to try the dealer. Cheers

The rubber and canvas base seat support that spring loads the drivers seat in my 300tdi split suddenly yesterday. I have tried to repair it with EVO Stick and a sheet of thick rubber but it has failed again. Any idea who would supply a new one or is it a dealer part. I have tried all the obvious suspects websites but to no avail

Great thanks for the link to the website. a foglamp switch will be ideal. Cheers K

Sorry to jump on the Thread. I have fitted Hella spot lamps on my 300 TDi. I want to switch them so they do not always come on with main beam. I want to put a switch on the dash that looks original or maybe a small neat switch where the blank for the headlamp adjusters would be if i had them. There seems to be loads of spare places for switches but i dont want it to look untidy. Cheers
