i am fitting a 300 tdi and gearbox from a disco
to a 110 defender i notice the gear lever fouls the
seat box is ther any way round it or is it just a matter of cutting and forming
middle seat area

cut the seat box or fit the correct gearbox, i believe its possible to swap the top of the box but you would need the correct box in the first place to do this, you may also find your props dont fit depending on what engine was in before
