Fiberglass seat quality?

Post by Willie_B »

I have seen photos of the seats but just wondering how good/stable there are. Do they flex when leaning into the corners and such? I have the 4 original metal seats now but being as this moke will never be a show car i would not mind swapping to the fiberlass ones and selling on the metal ones. Also any idea on the cost for the fiberglass ones?

Hi Willie. I would keep the original metal ones. my experience is that the fibreglass ones flex. Also, keeping the metal ones will mean that, if you ever sell the Moke, it is original.

Willie - if you want to swap your English seats, I'll happily take the off your hands - will give you fibre glass seats too :D

I'm actually after 2 - or preferably 4- myself (steel English ones that is).

If you want Fibre ones - http://mokepanels.com/panels/ or Leo Jack does them. M-Parts as well - They're £95 a piece.

I did promise to search for some metal 'English' seats.

How much are they going for now?
