    Disco 1 Aux power kit / Cigar lighter broken

    Hi all, I'm sitting here looking at the RAVE diagram for installing the aux power kit and it shows that you have one positive feed going to a relay from inside the boot area and another (switch feed? ) coming from what looks like a spade connector on the main fuseboard. Now my question is would...

    Who was the naughty mad4mud boys and girls off piste at W/E

    Well sadly that is how things are, for us buying a defender to use purely offroad is just too expensive (maybe one day :o). As far as I am concerned anything with the "green oval" on the front will always be a Land Rover, I will drive a Gaylander before I drive a Jeep. Now let me go back to my...

    How to properly store Land Rover Defender

    I don't know what people thought's are on this but I was always told to have something holding the clutch DOWN when parking up a vehicle for a significant amount of time to prevent the clutch plates sticking. I personally would go for a heavy duty tarp and some of those moisture box thingy's :)

    Fire Extinguisher mounting

    Cheers brian but on mine they have put a speaker on that panel and it's curved so I doubt it will fit on there also slighly worried about it conking someone on the head in a crash :brick: I think I may try mouning it under the passenger seat with some cam buckle straps :)

    Fire Extinguisher mounting

    Yeah I looked on rave but I reckon it must be for a smaller extinguisher there is no way mine will fit there! I'll go have a look to see if it will fit on the panel if not I might get a smaller one for inside and keep a big one in the boot.
