Ask him if there are any cup holders? Edit: Ahhh, jeez I dunno what's wrong with me bagging his stuff - I hope he was/is happy with it! Good luck to a fellow Defender owner :)

Yeah I suppose a joystick directed spot could be kinda cool... But it's just too much, any prospective buyer should be aware of the Swiss cheese of drilled holes and rivnuts that will result when they remove it to sane levels. And think of all the drill swarf laying about in the internals...

Totally agree with the maglight. The puma hood with cut outs on a V8 stickered body ... Is it a V8? It mentions a remap.

Oh but it's got (sub optimally terminated) bush wire. Because you wouldn't want bush getting tangled with your hi-lift base and matte black burn kit(s) Imagine being inside that thing going arse up, 'tactical' **** flying in your face...

To help with the clean up after a 'rescue'.

Cairns Blue 849 perhaps, but most examples to search for are clear coated so look a wee bit different in images...

'Rescue' ?? That's pretty dang irresponsible IMO, if not completely vain. Good on them if they're out there throwing in with stuck cars/accidents/'situations' etc. - and being prepared with the required tools is a part of that, but let your actions speak for themselves, not your accessory...

Final update, everything done and more: Fixed interior light fault Extended 10AS aerial (can now arm/disarm from inside the house!) Sanded and repainted front grille (lumpy white corrosion on the alloy) Replaced both fuel breathers on the tank (broken and blocked... horrible job) Fixed light...

So far I've done: Greased UJs Diff oil change Air filter change Engine Oil and oil filter change The engine oil only poured out 5L - which I found odd as the dipstick still showed oil in the range. (I made sure the engine was warm and car level...) So, now it has near 7L in it and the...

Cool, buuuut if possible can we keep this thread on topic - i.e. known working config from people who actually done it.

Glad to help round here for a change! Since you're doing it i recommend upgrading to the programmable version, quite helpful when it's not cats n dogs.

Not sure what the TD5 fuse box looks like, but apparently it's in there - is this helpful: ? I swapped mine out in a puma, did the job...

Ahhhh, yes, I like this - I need to think about that option more often. Added bonus is that get to cook my forearm on the exhaust too (after smearing excess grease on it). I didn't do it, but whats the word on putting in some WD-40 overnight, then gunning it? Is the purging action of the...
