    Headlining revamp

    Okay this looks perfect.... it's the 'insulation' to prevent condensation that people mention that I am not sure about. Does the camping mat idea glued to the roof prevent condensation or just absorb it?

    Steering guard - is there a better fitting one

    I have a Rebel guard fitted to my 1997 300tdi and it is one piece and very solid.

    Greenhouse heater in Land Rover

    I am only using my Defender 110 County once or twice a month and it is now damp, condensation and mold is about... I know the real solution is to use it more but I am looking for a cost effective and safe way just to try and keep it dry on the inside. I have spotted a electric tube heater and...

    Black or White?

    Its not a lounge you are decorating its a Land Rover...if it ain't bust don't fix it and keep it original? Next you will be putting matching curtains up ;) Ivory or white doesn't show the bird **** and the only time you see the roof is when you look out of the bedroom window.... maybe I am too...

    Def. 110 Vibration at 80-90mph

    Could it be the tyres are not suited to doing 90mph? I think that's almost a land speed record as it is!........stick to 60mph :)

    Which exhaust?

    I found the diagrams on paddocks website helpful re exhausts...... the rest of the exhaust is not that expensive. I would think that the other 2 correct sections to match the one you fitted should sort it. But...

    There's something not right about my windows!

    looks like a few vehicles have been stripped and put back together in any order....they are commercial or van sides with glass in. What does your log book say the vehicle is? As above...... looks okay but it aint right. Too many wrong bits?
