HSE with Leather seats and 4 years warrenty.. staying for now !

I just replaced my whole seat base due to rips in the vinyl sides thanks to the other threads on this forum and Dan at Duckworths giving me a discount on the part. Took about one hour. HSE has only two bolts at the front to release then it slides forward off two lugs at the back. Take your time anybody can do it. Fitting of new leather base wasn't that bad. Best advice I found was to bin the round wire attachments, which I bent out of shape anyway and use cable ties in their place that made tightening it all up easy. Looks great I think along with the new gaiter from eBay. Freelander 2, 2007, HSE, black in South Oxfordshire
