has anyone fitted an additional grab handle in the passenger side of a defender the same or similar to that in a disco?

the standard defender side one is a bit lame

I havent done it but i guess you could grab one from a disco or similar, or even B&Q and bolt/self-tap it through the dash no problem cos its just a profile of bent steel

I can bend you up a piece of 20mm or 25mm conduit at work. let me know the width of the "arms", i can leave them as long as you like so you can trim them, maybe flatten them down so you can bolt through them to the dash.

On my Series III I used one of the grab handles off the rear cross member bolted through the front of the parcels tray, which is metal inside. I did it on the assumption that the passenger would be wearing a seatbelt, so it will be for steadying, not to take his whole weight.
