Same front sub-frames/mounting-boxes as far as I'm aware.
The rear ought to be a similar width

After all the 'Re-Discoverys' used R-R seats in a Discovery body

I can't remember the name of the company off the top of my head (possibly "Nationwide") but they do reupholstery and retrims and advertise in all the LR mags and I know they used to offer this as an upgrade for Disco's (and probably still do) so clearly it can be done.

Anyway at the end of the day, a Disco is basically a RR classic with a new body on top (and even then a lot of the dimensions/angles are the same)

I tried fitting RRC seats to my disco and found that you have to remove the door pockets otherwise they stop the door from closing as the RRC seats are wider.  :?

Ive just put a set into my 110. Bloomin comfy, and the jack you up a bit too.

Just need a smaller steering wheel, if anyone has one cheap.
