Niche 1999 Discovery Seat Question
Hey all,
Attempting to replace the front seat cushions and replace with new leather seat covers and backrest covers. I purchased seat covers from Lseat and seat foam replacements from exmoor. My big problem is that the discovery 1 and discovery 2 were both produced in 1999 and while the discovery 1 and 2’s parts are very separate and different, apparently the seats are the same.
I made the mistake of purchasing Discovery 1 seat foams which where too big for the seat frame so I purchased seat foam for a discovery 2. My question is that the discovery 2 seat foam fits much better, but still seems to require too much force and is not as much of a nice fit as I was expecting.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks!

DI and D2 seats are not the same. Since you own a DI, why did you order seat foams for a D2?
"I made the mistake of purchasing Discovery 1 seat foams which where too big for the seat frame so I purchased seat foam for a discovery 2. "
The Series I Discovery was sold through mid-1999, and the Series II Discovery was produced and sold the last half of 1999.

Yeah, so not so much of a question of do I have a D1 or a D2, I for sure have a D1 (rear tail lights, other cosmetics and mechanical parts replaced). I guess I’m asking if anyone knows or has had personal experience replacing the seat foams? I’m assuming there was only one type of seat for the discovery 1 up to 1998 and for the discovery 2’s 1999 and on?
Thanks
Thanks

basically just sliding the seat foam in. Have trouble getting it to sit far enough back without being scrunched. I can send pictures in a bit.
