I have a hobbit you could borrow ?
So there are two bolts - but it came off undamaged with just removing the one ?
-
I did this to a Peugeot - the battery +ve was black and the earth red. I didn't work that out until the smoke stage. No damage apparent - and that was a few months ago.

I've used gutter sealant in a few places and it seems to have done a good job and lasted well. I definitely wouldn't be using silicone.
Closed cell foam with an adhesive backing is pretty cheap on eBay - so making up the strips like in Les's kit would be a doddle too. You could probably cut a gasket in a single piece from a larger sheet.

I've thought about where to put one in my 90 and not settled on where.
The seat box is an obvious choice but that's vulnerable to wading, and anywhere else in the cab seems a bit obstructive. Bit there'd be a host of problems to resolve there.
It would be nice if you could you fit one in the standard dash - in the heater box part. So that it worked through the standard vents.

I'm tempted - but I don't need it ...... I'm a sucker for tools.

On the stable site, linked above, the product is only 3mm thick - so I can't imagine it would compress much under a jack or stand ?
It also says it doesn't need adhesive - do you think though that it might lift on its edges ?

Picture of one here Mike - from the same guys you bought yours from :

The ones I've seen look like this - with the 4 mounting holes, which I presumed lined up with those on the engine ...
-
I've just started to look at these - thinking about onboard air .... And they look nothing like the ones I've looked at too. Wierd.
-
That does look good ! Not badly priced either.
My floor is already stained by oil and waxoyl and the like - the hard bit is that it's turned into a workshop rather than a garage, so their would be a hell of a lot of stuff to take outside ...... But with matting I wouldn't have to wait for drying and could get the stuff back in straight away.

I don't want to clutter up a tech thread, but just wanted to say kudos to PauMc - brilliant info you share on all things electrical.
I wish I'd know this a couple of years back when I had a blue earthing header melt on my td5 ! I used push fit headers from CPC, not as compact or factory as this.
-
That axle looks lovely !
Shame you didn't do a build thread for it. Perhaps you could when you do the back one ?
-
I wonder how much it cost to produce 44 million tax discs ? Looks like a reasonable saving to stop.
-
We need some Amish style barn raising ..... Where we all drive up in dungarees and set to, to build a new one.
-
Oh no
So sorry to see that.

Alps is easy to research Stephen. Play with Google for an hour or two, lots of stuff on you tube too.
Mo
You were right ! Thank you for the suggestion.

Can anyone give me an idea on what sort of price I should expect to pay for a pair of SW sides ?
I fancy being able to put some windows in the back but have no idea of what's a fair price.

What an eclectic thread ! Defenders and 80's in there Freelander forum
To the topic though - I've never been keen on 8 spokes, there is a nice old S2 near me with a set on, which for me ruin it's look....
-
Wow 300,000 !!
Brilliant.
Any more details ?
-
Our posts crossed .... That does sound unequivocally dodgy ...
-
Precisely .....
It might seem like a delay to wait - but I expect it'd be a bigger delay to be ripped off for £300.
If he was a decent seller surely he'd care about your buying experience and be working to give you a bit of confidence.
Similarly - thinking about it ...why use eBay if your not prepared to pay the fees. Is it a sign of generally being dodgy ?
It seems to read a bit like he knows your desperate and is using that to his advantage.

Would you share the set up you used to test your fuel pressure ?
