Thanks for the advice guys, landyzone comes through again. EaryDeaf - Thanks for the recommendation, ive messaged them Litch - yeah I'm considering new, LR Centre have quoted me £300 for the tailgate, plus fittings and then I'd have to get it painted. This is currently my backup if nothing...

Hi everyone, I have a TDI Hi-cap pickup that I need a tailgate for. I've tried gumtree, ebay, landyzone, online breaker searchers but nothings come up. Any suggestions on where to search? I'm on the south coast so ideally something I can pick up relatively locally.

I read that same article about average labour costs! :) Called up the next nearest Landy specialist and they were ten quid more so reckon I'm going to bite the bullet and go for it.

Hi timmy, I've just bought a pair of angel light led headlights like I think you have. They connect to the existing pin with a wire for the drl and indicator. Just wondering how you hooked these up?

Hi Gazman, I've just bought the same headlights as you from so 4x4. Any tips for fitting them? Where did you run the lead for the DRL and side light & how did you connect them? I've got limited experience with electrics but have never spliced on to existing lines as they mention on their website..
