mickeyw Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I am attempting to fit a set of 3 front seats into the middle row of my 110 station wagon. The seats I have are the early type with a slightly wider centre seat. It looks like it will be rather tight to squeeze them in, so I'm giving a thought to how much narrower the layer(Tdi onward?) centre seat is. Can someone with the later type please wave a tape measure at their truck for me? I need overall width of the cushion. The early type measures 16 inches.

mickeyw Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 Anyone? You can't ALL have cubby boxes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve200TDi Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I'll have a look when I get home! I'll try to remember! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustardman Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) The front centre seat is 13.5" wide the frame and cushion are the same width. I'm little confused what you're after though as your first post mentioned middle row and your second post mentioned cubby boxes.

steve200TDi Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Hi Mike, The centre seat in my '93 and '99 defender 90 measure 15 inches. The drivers and passenger seats measure 18 inches so you would only need to space out the outer seats by say an inch for all three cushions to sit snuggly against each other. Hope this helps.

nickwilliams Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 The later vehicles have the outer seat mountings moved in by 25mm on each side so the middle seat mountings (and seat) are 50mm narrower to accommodate this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickwilliams Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 The second half of my previous post is in fact complete boll**cks - the middle seat is narrower, but its mounting points are the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickeyw Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 The front centre seat is 13.5" wide the frame and cushion are the same width. I'm little confused what you're after though as your first post mentioned middle row and your second post mentioned cubby boxes. This sounds about right, as another source on FB, while apologising for not having a tape measure, told me his centre seat was 2.5 CD cases wide! Based in this innovative unit I was hedging at 13 - 13.5". The reason I mentioned cubby boxes is because later models were fitted with a seat OR a box. Anyone with a box wouldn't be able to answer my question Nick - I had a feeling the seats moved in by an inch a side, but had nothing to check against. Steve -your measurements have confused me rather. They seem to wide for the centre seat. My ( wide type) has cushion and frame the same width, although that may be the result of it never having been reshaped by a human backside Thank you to everyone that has replied. The results of this enquiry will find their way to my 110 write up eventually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
