Sadly the 94/95 model year Disco seats are very different as you are seeing first hand. Easiest thing to do is just sell those off and source a set of either 96-99 D1, or any NAS model year RRC seats. The benefit of the RRC seats is you get the arm rests and such akin to the seats in your LR3.
With enough fabrication anything can be made to fit of course, but from what I remember when I looked at it I waved off b/c it was going to be a royal PITA. Since then I've had cloth manual, RRC, and now power leather in Coyote.
If you can source RRC seats, get the rear one too, it's an upgrade over the Disco's 60/40 setup in my opinion.
Truck looks great!

I just completed my quest to find clean replacement seats for my '96. Be patient; it requires a good bit of looking.
Joel from Buckhorn Imports has/had a near-perfect set on ebay for $750 shipped. Museum-quality and not too bad when you consider two things: shipping is probably $200 or so on a pallet, and there aren't many out there.

The seats in my dad's 95 disco were shot. The leather was ripped and the bottom was blown out.
We took the truck to an upholstery shop and they fixed it. A LOT easier and cheaper than trying to find an elusive replacement seat. The repair looked pretty good. Then I scrubbed the crap out of it with Lexar and all was well. Or you could fix em up and slap a seat cover on it.
