Hi, Im in the market for a series 2 and just wondering if they have heaters built in and also how to put mud flaps onto them, as a defender has mounting brackets, im wanting the new Britpart mud flaps but they don't say anything about series and the exhaust is on the opposite side.:confused:
 
hi, yes series 2's have a lovely top of the range smiths heater, with the controll knob just handy ( in the engine bay)
ter be honest yer better of with a candle in the footwell and when it gets really cold yer could always light it to keep warm !

never used the heater in my series2, or 90, yer dunt need it ;)

secondly pm buster see if he still has the flaps fer sale, new genuine LR series parts, yer'l have to be quick or il have them fer mine :)
 
not on a series mate ! check if it has a new ish , 45a ACR alternator that has replaced the dynamo, on those old lucas jobs yer lucky to get enough power to use the main beam not to mention an aux heater ! alternator power is ok , yer better off with a better quality heater / cooler tho, not a £9.99 thing
 
yup, try not to use brit part unless yer really have to, some stuff great and some stuffs ****e yer pay yer money and take yer chance ;)

yer can get a replacement matrix from Clayton Heaters, google them
