Land Rover Defender bucket seat guide

Land Rover Defender Bucket Seat Guide

Land Rover Defender...

The Land Rover Defender is an off-road capable vehicle and a British classic developed in the 1980s from the original series launched in 1940s that has four-wheel drive giving the vehicle great off-road capabilities. Once you start using your Land Rover Defender (1983-2016) for fast road, and off-road use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support and comfort. 

The original Land Rover seats are rather basic in design. They provide no support or ergonomic design. Upgrading the original seats should be one of the first modifications you make to this iconic vehicle.  

Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand. 

We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our Land Rover Defender seat guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
