2007 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 DCPU Stornoway Grey

Assuming that you means the second row seats, it depends.

The second row seats from a Double-Cab 110 are the same as those in a Double-Cab 130, but they are not the same as those in an SW or USW 110.

The difference is that the seats from the DC have had a modification to keep the see back more upright than those in vehicles which do not have the cab rear panel behind them (since the upper part of the seat back and the head restraint would otherwise foul the rear of the cab). The modification is removable, so the DC seats can be altered to match non-DC seats, but I don't think that you can go the other way due to the unavailability of parts.

There have been threads on here in the past on this subject, includign at least one which shows in detail the difference and how the backrest limit adjustment was "engineered" by JLR>

2002 Defender 110 Td5 DCPU Keswick Green

Unless you mean the older td5 or older second row benches. In which case they are identical and differ only in the way the back is retained. The DCPU has a bent piece of plate bolted to the ends which attaches the back of each part of the bench to the rear capping. The CSW has a latch mechanism which allows the seat to fold down. Tge physical seat is the same though

Good point, I forgot the TD5 option.

I have always been amazed that it wasn't until the advent of the TDCi that JLR started to fit head restraints to the second row seats. I find this extraordinary (but safety has never been a priority with the Defender).

I find it amazing that the TD5 style seats persisted for so long, given that they're possible the most uncomfortable things on the planet!!

I'm pretty sure that the brackets that secure the seats to the floor / underside crossmember frame are a different size between the DC version and 110 SW version. it's a Landrover thing...
