    fuse rating for blade fuse upgrade

    I've just ordered some 1 amp and 2 amp blade fuses from ebay so I can cover the 2.5 glass, so I'm going to start by halving the blade fuse rate and see how it goes, the 12 amp is still the problem so I'll just try a 7.5 blade in that circuit I think the 5 amp may be too low. Alan.

    fuse rating for blade fuse upgrade

    I was hoping to hear that someone used the same rating and everythings OK, though it seems the lowest rating I can find is 3 amp to replace the 2.5 glass and I was going to use 7.5 to replace the 8 amp glass, the problem one seems to be what to use for the 12 amp glass, I was just going to use...

    I'm in the process of upgrading the fuse box on my 25 year old 90 getting fed up with bad connections, the brake light and flasher circuit I changed to a blade earlier this year. I've got all the bits from Vehicle Wiring Products but when ordering from them on their website the blade fuse...

    defender rear door handle

    I've been having problems with rear door handle recently and the other day a genuine brand new in box one came up on ebay, I bid and won it. It turned up a couple of hours ago and went out to fit it. I opened the box and held it up against the existing one and couldn't believe my eyes it's the...

    VAT on defender side window conversion

    So I bought it privately and no vat was paid, and I believe that was the case with the previous owner, so on that alone that dealer does not sell it with VAT even though it shows light utility on the registration papers. Is that correct.

    VAT on defender side window conversion

    I thought it was not so clear cut, I think it's the usual salesman knock the price down technique. Fact is I've got people wanting to buy this Landie anyway I just don't like being on the end of bull**** and want to know the facts.

    VAT on defender side window conversion

    I was talking to a local used Landie dealer today thinking of trading my defender for a Disco 3, he says because it's a side window conversion and not an original station wagon he would have to put VAT on it to re-sell, so reducing the trade value. Is this correct, I assumed once converted it...

    rear folding step bolts

    I started a thread a couple of weeks ago trying to find the correct size for the rear folding step bolts for a 90, without any success, which amazed me. All the knowledge on the site and couldn't find the answer to what was a simple question. I said I would post the size when I sorted it, so...

    fold up rear step bolt

    Have a look under your rear crossmember and to the left of centre you will see 2 plates (probably wrong to call them captive nuts) that are threaded tto take the bolts for the step. I've just won a step on ebay that's been used but with no bolts, I need to find some in the next few days before...

    fold up rear step bolt

    I'm looking for bolts to fit the rear folding step on a defender and at a glance I thought M8 but it's not. Is it 3/8 whitworth or UNF does anyone know. I tried to find the answer in a search on the site but without success. Alan.
