Seat material dimentions?

[Dijan1993]

Just wondering if anyone knows the the dimensions for the re upholstering seat material or where I can find it? I though it was in the Haynes restoration manual that I had but it does not list the cut sizing. just to add an extra 2-4cm when folding over material before stitching or stapling?
Also, another long shot... Would anyone know where I can find Elephant Grey colored vinyl material? I am not looking for the original but somethin close.

Any response is helpful1

Regards,

Dion

I had a local upholstery shop in Kelowna recover mine. He matched up the elephant grey quite well and did a nice job, and it wasn’t terribly expensive. He did the door cards as well.
(I also saw your post on Landroverforums. That’s a really great site for Disco’s, but not really a lot of Series owners there).

Hi Dion,

Is it a Series 1,2 or 3? What year? The seats were a little different in each.

My series one only has two front seats and had them re upholstered a couple of weeks ago . I was told I needed 3 yards of material. Not sure how much if any was left over. Also did the tailgate chain covers. Wasn't elephant hide though.

I remade and sell elephant hide.

It’s a 100 a yard. Not cheap but comparable to what exmoor charged when they offered it and this is far superior. Shoot me a message if you want more info.

Wow! why am I not getting notifications from members.... Thanks Andy. mine are both Series2a 109's. One 2-Door and the other is a 4-door. I haven't had any replies to the dimension questions so thank you for your reply...
Where are you getting the material from and what are you using to sew and stich the seams?

I had a company make it for me.

For a 109 wagon I think 18 yards will do everything.

I have a local shop make each piece for me. Bring them a seat, they redo it with my material, etc
