Generally speaking going places you're not meant to IS behaving like a baffoon :suspicious:

Don't think so mate.

Well made a start on the electrical stuff plus had my new exhaust to fit

Old v New




New middle pipe




Not sure how long this will last




I also modified the washers to get a bit better coverage on the screen.




Replaced side repeaters with 2 of the LED marker lights

So let to do is.....


Fit Pod to dash
Replace oil filter housing wth modified one with senders in
Remove oil cooler lines
Fit rest of marker lights and wire into beacon controller


Nice to find out then its getting cold this week

Good build fred, given me some ideas

Like the washer idea. Always a problem for me that. How did u do it?

Removed the washer jets from the cowling, extended the hose with some clear tubing upto each wiper, fitted the jet on the end and cable tied it to the wiper

If you want to go one better, get the jets off a peugeot 407 as they give a brilliant fan pattern that doesn't clog up

Or a Vauxhall Insignia

I am not devaluing my Landy with Vauxhall parts thank you

Nothing wrong with vauxhall parts !insignia washer jets are a very common mod

When you realise I work for Ford you will understand there is

Shouldn't u be driving a ranger or an f150 or a similar piece of American sh*te?!?

Probably but as Ford owned JLR for a good number of years I consider it the next best thing
