Carpet Replacement TD5 Rear

I have just had someone taken out my 4 inward facing back seats on my TD5 as needed more space and never used. I thought they would be really heavy like my Defender 90 back seats but quite light in weight!

I will be plugging the holes with silicone I think. Does anyone have experience of this? Worried rain may get in eventually. Also anyone know if you can replace the carpet at the back on the TD5 or have a source to purchase. Looks a bit odd with all the seats cut outs exposed?

I bought 2 rolls of Black vehicle carpet off EBay for a total of £98 which was plenty and covered from the rear of the front seat boxes all the way back. It looked great when finished.

When I took the forward facing rear seats 6&7 out Of my first Defender as I didn’t need them I bought some black rubber grommets from my local diy store to put in the holes. Then carpeting over the top.

This was the carpet I used buying in 2 rolls off eBay and cutting to size. I really enjoyed doing it and the end result was fantastic Sold the Puma Defender and bought a brand new Pangea Green 2020 Defender D240 S with a few factory extras!

For plugging holes in wheel boxes, I've had a lot of success with scraps of aluminium glued to the underside with Sikaflex. Completely waterproof and leaves a level surface inside.
