I love tinkering with mine! guess that's why I bought one...I uprated the dash lighting which made a world of difference and am about to embark on fitting insulation and new cloth to the headlining now that the rain has stopped for more than an hour. What are the best mods or upgrades that you have carried out? Which ones have made the biggest difference to your driving experience?
What are the best mods/upgrades/changes that you have made to your Defender?

Would be between the Disco transfer box, VGT and intercooler and the new seats but I'd really miss all the other stuff too

Couple of the best ones would have to be
Bulkhead removal and seat risers (loads more room)
X eng handbrake (no more stripping drum off to clean out)
