Cobra Stuttgart vinyl seat, Land Rover specification. Part number COB-STUTT-SEAT-LR. Made to order.
Built for the Land Rover
This is the Stuttgart in the specification Cobra supply for Land Rover fitment. Fifteen trim combinations are available on this listing, all in the vinyl range rather than leather.
Worth confirming what is included before you order. The attributes on this listing read as seat only, and the name says package, so tell us the vehicle and we will confirm in writing what arrives and what still needs ordering. That is a two minute check that saves a wasted delivery.
Why the Stuttgart suits these vehicles
530mm seat depth, which is shallower front to back than almost anything else Cobra make. In a Defender or a Series vehicle, where the distance between the bulkhead and the seat box is fixed and unforgiving, that shallow depth is often what makes a reclining seat possible at all.
800mm tall, 520mm wide, on a 500mm base, 13.2kg.
The trim
Black vinyl throughout, or vinyl outers with basketweave, corduroy, houndstooth or tartan centres. Vinyl is the right material for a vehicle that gets used properly: it wipes clean, and wet clothing does not mark it.
Reclining, headrest included, steel frame, base mount. Road and Track approved, four point harness compatible.
Base bolt pattern is 291mm by 330mm, Cobra’s standard spacing across the range. That is why their runners come in a 291mm handle width, and it is the number to check against any frame you already own.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Corbeau RRS Low Base Seats Fitted Into Our Customers Land Rover Defender, and Cobra Land Rover Defender Seats In Stock For Immediate Dispatch. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will I fit in this seat?
The maker sizes this seat for drivers with a 36in to 38in or 32in to 36in waist. Those are the paper numbers; how a seat actually feels to sit in and climb out of is a different question, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so call us with your height and waist and we will give you the honest answer.
What kind of car suits this seat?
Classic and retro vehicles, which is exactly what this shell is designed around. The low-back retro style belongs in a period build, not a modern car, however tempting the weight figure looks. If you are kitting out a modern road or track car, we will point you at the right modern shell instead.
Is this seat FIA approved?
No, this is a road and track day seat rather than a homologated competition seat. For events that require an FIA seat, look at the FIA-approved shells in the range, and ask us if you are unsure what your series needs.
What do I need to fit it to my car?
This is a base-mount seat: it bolts down through its base, the simpler stack for road cars. You will need the car-specific frame, and a sliding runner if you want fore-and-aft adjustment. Our guide on base mount versus side mount walks through the whole stack, and tell us your car and we will quote the full kit.
Does it work with harnesses and a HANS device?
The shell takes 4 point compatible. If you are planning the full seat, harness, and HANS setup, tell us the car and we will spec it end to end.
How do I know it will feel right, not just fit on paper?
Fair question, because makers publish widths and weights, never feel, and two seats with identical numbers can feel nothing alike in the car. We keep the ranges on display in the Nottingham showroom, you are welcome to come and sit in them, and if you cannot get to us, call and describe your build, as the team sit in these seats every day. Our head support measurements guide shows the kind of real-world data we collect.
