Td5 & Tdci/Puma Seat Frame Difference


Recommended Posts

Hi 

Has anyone had experience with completely retrimming both Td5 & Tdci Front Seats. I'm wondering as to what the difference actually is in the the seat base and backs other than the the head rest pole mounts.  My seats are shot at and have the opportunity to buy the high back premium seat covers and foam set from a Tdci and was hoping if the seat base and back frames were the same to fabricate two poles by drilling through the top two horizontal tubes to secure the top part of the high part of the seat there not on show. Any help greatly apricated and any person with photos of a Tdci frame will put forward for a Knight Hood!

Exmoor Trim told me that they are pretty much identical as they use the same frame, the only big difference is the headrest as you say. Have a look at their website and you can see the difference in foam shape between the two types.

Do try them out before you make a change though, I much prefer the shape of the older ones which to me feel like you sit "in" them with much better side support. The newer Puma ones I feel you sit "on", sit slightly closer to the wheel (especially in a truck cab) and there's no side-to-side support in the backrest. I've taken the newer ones out of mine and moved back to the old style ones. Partly because I hated the vinyl in summer but mainly because of the shape!
