Defender 110 Hard Top rear seat conversion

[CSLmarson]

Hi there

I'm looking to purchase a 110 hard top and at some point get a rear seat conversion added.

Has anyone got any experience with this and or know any good garages in the south east that can undertake the wortk?

thanks

I used these guys for both my Disco 4 Commercials https://www.scotseats.co.uk/car-derived-van-seats-...

They are based in Scotland but have fitters throughout the UK.

Is this legal?

It was a very grey area when I had the D4.

The seats are legal, and do not affect the commercial vehicle status.

If you started reinstating the electric windows in the back then it got murky.

Assume the reason to do this is to save VAT?

Cant be much fun in the back with no windows though

And to save on bik.

On the Disco we removed the plastic blankings that were put on the rear windows so you could see out, just not open them, and kept them for re-fitting when the vehicle was sold.
