Hi mate I've done what you are about to to. I put the lights and grill fron a 300 on to my 200. I very easy job. All i did was to get the grinder out and make the head light holes a little bigger in the 200. The rear of the 300 lights are bigger and they will not fit into the 200. Then...

Has anyone put the disco 300 dash into the 200? A few people in the know have told me that it carnt be done but have they even tryed? I have an 'L' reg 200 tdi that runs and looks great. I dont wish to get rid of the old girl but it does look a little dated. So i have put the 300 lights and...

Hi all. I got me a little problem. I have an 'L' reg 200 tdi disco (no thats not the problem:D). I have just put a new injector pump on it as the other one was nackered. So this 'new to me' (second hand) injector pump has been played with before i got it. I know that as it goes like stink...

Hi all. When i have been towing the horse box or been on the motorway at 70m.p.h for an hour or so the gear box becomes very stiff when i slow down or stop. Its really hard work to change gear. Its a manual box (LT77) It becomes hard work untill it cools down. I have been told its...

Thanks guys....i now have the correct colour. To me its white but to Landrover its Savana White!!!

Hi Gil....i dont know where you are from but i have a bull bar sat here in my back garden, and you are more than welcome to come and take it away for free. I have stripped it of the plastic coating and resprayed it black. Its nothing fancy but i took it off my disco 1and put a fancy one on...

Thanks guys. As you say Andy66 its to late now. Why do we ask the important questions when it's too late LOL. Anyway you are all right, it should move in and out under its own weight. So i went and got another one and i dont think i will bother splitting it!!!

Morning Greg.......i like you are on a tight budget (with many others) and i wanted a snorkle, and on looking around i found them to be expencive (even on ebay) I have seen a 'home made' one and i thought it looked a right mess, but the young guy who had done it thought it looked great. It...
