website is called autoseatskins.com (http://www.shopsar.com/Land-Rover-Discovery-s/877.htm) and the 00-01 kit starts at 749 bucks(front ,back seat covers and premium package also has matching door panels) so its couple hundred cheaper then getting seats out of used ones but if you want original leather from land rover then i seen complete seats for 595 for front and 395 for back ones with 78 dollar shipping (Discovery Seating) and they got all the LR colors but i want to go with black and white seat so i need to know if the seat cover from 00-01 will fit before i pull the trigger on it

And don't forget dismantlers or u-pull-da-part salvage yards - I paid $22 a piece for front electric seats, and a rear bench would have been $29. I'm soooo cheap I put a passenger seat in the driver's spot, because I couldn't find a good one. D1 seats won't cross to D2 chassis. I wanted a D2 rear seat for the center arm rest.

I think the HUGE head rests on the D2 rear seat suck. That's just about the only thing I liked better about driving a D1 over a D2. They create a horrible blind spot, because they get more in the way of the rear quarter windows. I've been tempted to just leave the seats folded down all of the time.
Regarding blind spots: I read about this somewhere on how to reduce blind spots, I tried it, and love it!
To set side mirrors, sit in the driver's seat as you normally would. Now move your head against the driver's window (yes, actually have your head touch the door glass), and adjust the driver's side view so that you can only barely see the back of your vehicle. Next lean your body so that your head is about in the middle of your vehicle, and adjust the passenger mirror so you can only barely see the back of your vehicle.
Having done this, cars overtaking you will either be in your rear view, or either side view until they are nearly completely along side your vehicle (when you can see them from your peripheral vision).
