I've decided to try and fix the current leak, rather than introduce new issues with a leaky sunroof, etc. Removed the minging headliner to see what was really going on underneath. It needed to go!! I've ordered my green house tape, replaced all of the tired grommets in the roof and applied...

I've found some things on eBay. The roof, sides, etc are being auctioned off separately so a bit of a crapshoot--no guarantee I'll get all or any of the parts I'm looking for. Are you trying to replace the entire roof? Aside from the leak in mine, it's fine. I just wished it had more...

Will do, thanks!

Thank you. I have an enormous hard copy manual, too. Probably need to thumb through that one. My concern is more with the "new" one fitting at all, and then being able to secure it properly.

Greenhouse tape? Do you get that at a specific store? If I could actually find the leak I'd try to repair it. Thought it was due to loose grommets on the roof, replaced those, and now the leak seems to be coming from somewhere else completely! Ugh.

Hello! Oh, great, thanks for that advice. I'm definitely not precious about the paint job right now. And will absolutely recruit some help.

Hi! Yes, trying to replace a super-leaky roof top with a better one with a sun roof (my current one doesn't have one).

Anyone have experience removing and replacing the hard top on a Land Rover 90? Any areas for concern? Specific areas to measure or validate for compatibility?

Welcome, and congratulations! Best of luck on the trek. May the odds be ever in your favo(u)r.

Hiya! I need to repair or replace the front outside seats of my Land Rover Defender. I've looked into a full repair kit from Exmoor Trim and new seats altogether (not cheap). Wondering if anyone is selling any front seats in better shape, or has any other tips on how best to repair mine. The...

Found it!! Thank you both so very much. The engine number was hidden under a few layers of grime and I began to think it just wasn't there. Thanks for getting help and guidance; may never have found that sucker otherwise.

Stumbling through, getting acquainted with my little beast, learning as I go, and very great full for the help so far!

Can anyone help me with where to find the engine number on my 1986 Land Rover 90 2.5L petrol? I found a few numbers, just not sure which one is the actual engine number. Any help is much appreciated!

Nice! Is that a classic Land Rover color? Where did you get it painted? Or, did you do it yourself?

Sikaflex you say? Might have to try that or tape. At least to help keep the whole thing from filling up with water for a while. Not that it rains here in the UK.
