    Front Seat Belt Part Number

    Hi I need to replace the front seat belts in my 1992 90 Hard top. I can't seem to find the correct part number - I know I need the 'truck cab' ones where the end of the belt is attached to the same bracket as the inertia reel, but there seem to be lots of conflicting part numbers and the ones...

    Headlight issues

    I've got a Boomslang headlight loom which I bought months ago... I need to fit it now the nights are drawing in! These links might give a few pointers: http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic26097.html?highlight=landreiziger http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic32094.html

    Radiator rubber mounts

    I'm going to replace my radiator next weekend but I'm trying to work out what rubber mounts I need to order (I'm assuming the current ones at 20+ years old will be perished). I can't work out whether there are top and bottom ones. I can't find any definitive information anywhere so any help...

    Wiring colour?

    Using a guide to standard wiring colours (Lucas?) can help e.g. http://www.mgexp.com/article/lucas-colours.html although there is no guarantee it will be 100% correct, especially if a previous owner has done a bit of DIY electrics :rolleyes:

    Installing the Britpart side window kit to a 90 Van body - tips?

    Yes watch this:) the only thing I remember is he cut the corners first using a jigsaw or something then used a grinder for the sides of the openings. He made it look very easy as usual ;)

    Defender 90 Mileage

    I wouldn't get too hung up on mileage to be honest as a lot of components may have been replaced anyway! As Adrian says my priority would be the chassis and bulkhead, then I'd want to see service history (if done by owner then when did they last change fluids etc) and receipts to see what work...

    Where are your speakers?

    Mine are between the seats on the front side of the bulkhead if that makes sense (the previous owner put them there).

    Wiper problems

    I know that wiper problems have been covered in lots of threads but I can't seem to find the same symptoms as mine. I have a 1992 90 200Tdi and the wipers did work on intermittent, normal, and fast. Then intermittent and fast gave up. When I operate them, there is no noise at all from the...

    salisbury and rover diffs - EP90 or 80w/90? GL4 or 5?

    Either EP90 or 90w90, GL4 seems to be the consensus. Wilkinsons do Comma 80w90 GL4 for £3.50 a litre bottle which is massively cheaper than anywhere else and you can order to collect in store. Quite a few people have used this stuff.

    Those eBay alloy gear lever knobs...

    I've got some and they do look great. They are a bit chilly in the winter, but you get used to it and it isn't that bad. I used a little bit of threadlock (not the permanent stuff!) so once I had screwed them on and got them straight, I let them set before I drove it and they've been fine. The...

    Heated rear window switch

    This is a job I need to do on my 200Tdi 90 and having done a bit of research, there is a voltage sensitive switch as well as a relay that operates the heated window. Apparently the vss fails quite often but can be bypassed I believe. I can't find the links I thought I had saved about this...

    defender 110 csw roof lining

    Can't remember where I saw it (either on here or on a FB group) but somebody used thin ply - they used the existing headlining as a template and then covered it with automotive stretch carpet I think. You should also think about putting insulation between the roof and headlining to improve the...
