Wanted: 93/94 LWB RRC Seats

[craig]

I'm looking for a set of 93/94 long wheelbase Range Rover Classic seats. Depending on the color I need either just the fronts or the fronts and rear seats.

Looking for a set in very very good condition. I'm fine with replacing motors and fixing switches, but the seat frame, leather, etc needs to be in excellent shape.

Good luck on decent leather. Nearly impossible to find.

Thanks for the bump!

Just an FYI. All but the Sable Edition in '93 LWB's were Saddle Brown. I can't remember if Rover did any LSE Lightstone interiors in '93 but I think they did not. The '94 model year, while shorter, offered Sorrel Brown (the most common color), Lightstone (the cream color with darker piping) and Sable Brown (the very dark, almost black color). The other thing IIRC is that the stitching direction on the seats differed from '93 to '94.

I wish you luck as well. Good leather is getting harder and harder to come by.

My '93 Ardennes Green LWB has what I would call fair-good leather; no rips or tears but wear on the fronts(mostly driver).
My advice: get some good quality seat covers, that's what I'm doing to preserve mine.

I sold a pair of NOS OEM Saddle Brown seat covers (they had a NAS part number on them so they were a dealer option) on eBay about a year ago. They were 1 3/4" sheepskin. I think they sold for between $300-$400. It was a steal considering the quality. Putting sheepskins like that on your seats makes you forget about wanting to travel any other way.

There are some vendors in the UK that sell new leather but it's pricey!
Anyone have any luck reconditioning their leather seats? I've been considering something like these guys… http://www.fibrenew.com/southern-maine/

The ones in my rrc are now with brand new leather from the UK. Fit is excellent and they look great.

That said I am most likely putting GOOD covers on them asap.... maybe I should just pass them on to someone and put covers on some less than new ones... hmmm.

What color? I think your interior is tan but if they are grey I have leather or cloth I'd trade + front seat covers + $.

The leather from the UK is the other option I've been considering... or just refurbed seats.. or just paying my local auto upholstery shop.

My seats are tan.

With brand new heaters too.

I was going to swap the disco 2 black seats in too along with all the other black interior (dash, console, door panels) but left the seats and carpet tan for a two tone look and really like it that way.

Not sold on covers but "Abrooks" on the forums makes some really nice ones.... Maybe.
