Mine are black and look great in my living room! I have been squirting the sill bolts with Plus Gas (Other penetrating oils are available:)) for a couple of weeks and have a variety of abradiscs and wire brushes stood by for the chassis mounts. There's also a tub of coppaslip maturing in the...

I've got some General Grabber 235/85/R16s T/Rs on Boost alloys on eBay if your'e interested. If they don't want your money send it to me! :D

Great post, thanks! And entertaining too. Keep up the great work:D

Woo hoo! :) Just had my rock and tree sliders delivered from Richmond shot Blasting! They look really good (apart from a couple of scuffs that have revealed bare steel but I will sort that before fitting. The scuffs would be hidden when fitted but I need to keep corrosion at bay!) and...

And the other guys are right! The headlight surrounds and radiator grille are a bit 'gay'! Paint em matt black:D

Nice looking Defender. Next modification should be some security to keep the pikeys at bay!

After 2 whole months with the steels and muds, and a few long journeys under my belt I think your'e right Dave. I will e Bay the alloys and tyres. The mud tyres do make my 90 look kinda businesslike and I do take it off road so they will stay. Just need another wheel and tyre so I have a spare...

Hi. My Defender 90 came with Boost Alloys and A/T Tyres. They are pretty good (See picture) but I have fitted modular steels and Insa Turbo Dakar Mud tyres. Is it really worth having an extra set of wheels/tyres? I have been to Manchester, Castle Donnington and Birmingham (From London) with the...

I guess that's a 'NO' then! I suppose I will have to stop being a lazy tw*t and get out and have a look!:rolleyes:

I've got 16" steel modulars with Insa Turbo Dakar Tyres and no lift and I don't get stuck. Even went to my shoot this weekend in 6" of fresh snow on a rutted farm track. No bother! I have a set of A/T tyres on L/R Boost alloys gathering dust as well so I think I will eBay them soon as I don't...

Hi folks. Does anyone know if it is possible to adjust the bonnet latch on a 2002 defender TD5? Mine stands a bit proud when closed. I will have a look at the weekend but I go to work in the dark, and return in the dark so don't get much opportunity during the week. I have had a look in the...

A bit disappointing that you lurk until you need help. It's a bit like joining the AA or RAC only after you have broken down. Maybe I'm being a bit harsh.:o

Don't go straight to the lights without a relay! A relay is a must for high wattage lights

Need more detail really but it doesnt sound much like a short. It sounds more likley to be a high resistance connection. If it all looks good at the dash it could be detecting a resistance and can't tell this apart from a 'load'. All the dash knows is that it's sending 12v down the wire and it...

Doesn't matter what option you choose as both will probably leak! Don't forget to tell your insurers and the DVLA though as you could find it changes the taxation class from Light Goods (Van) to something else.

Are the bits you need not 'bundled in' with the seal kit that comes with the pump but orderable separately? RTC5935 - Kit seal (NTC8287) or STC1633 - Kit seal (NTC9070) Page 200 of SH's link I think

Shifty is right. Spots would be awful in fog. Reflected glare would make things far worse for you and other road users. Buy fogs and send me your spots! He's right about the relay and fuse too and MOT inspectors might be interested to check that fogs can only be selected with the appropriate...

Good afternoon folks. The volume on my Defender horn was very weak and I could hardly hear it. I have left the original in place and wired to the column stalk switch but wired in another really loud horn with it's own switch. To do this I have put the new horn behind the offside headlight just...

Bloody hell COA! Where do you live? Camberwick Green? Or have you smeared every inch of the inside and outside of you LR with dog sh*t?! Ahh! I get it! It's really a Jeep isn't it?! :D
