You wouldn't knock an extra 2.9" if you had the chance!!

I'm in the process of removing my dash on a 1994 defender 90. The bit I'm having a little trouble removing is the grey trim that is infront of the the vents/flaps. I have pulled out the 2 large grey plugs however there seems to be 5 or so little grey plastic nail looking things holding it in place along the bottom and they appear to go into the bulkhead. Any help on removal and or part numbers to replace them as they seem pretty well stuck in, so I'm guessing they will need replacing afterwards? Many thanks

Any idea if this will have an effect on MPG?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Did the cubby box come from BIG & TALL

How do you get said card?

With a bit of work it could be a sauna on wheels

Have a look at this link My link What do you all think? By the way its not mine just incase anyone was wondering.

I think he has been watching to many mad max films !!!!!!!

Anyone ???

Hi all As above really, I'm after an exploded parts diagram or photos of how the brackets, seat belts and seats go together on a 90 TD5 CSW. Also the postioning of the stregthening arm that supports from below. It would be really handy if someone could measure the postion of the holes for the rear seatbelt bar that runs along behind the seats. Thanking everyone in advance. Cheers

Roof console please and any chance of a metal version of the thing that goes over the gearbox tunnel please please please

I dont think it was your post he was refering to.

You might just need a beer tent at your next show with comments like your last. Mr Raptor.

A big plus to this console is that if you deside to change your mind about the layout after a while then you can just unscrew the facia and buy another front part in any colour from the ones available, change your dials/stereo/etc around and refit. That makes it pretty flexible in my opinion not to mention much more robust than the plastic ones that are being sold at not much difference in money. I've had a plastic one and they scratch so easily and in some places their so thin, problem being I found this out after I'd bought it and not before. Just so no one gets their knickers in a twist I have no connection what so ever with Raptor Engineering other than being a happy customer.

Could you fit a CB and stereo side by side in the top section? Looked on his website and that seems to be a set up not shown! Would this be as it makes the panel to weak? I wonder if this guy could make a good ceiling console ? Now that would be the dogs danglies.

Why cant people just leave alone what doesn't belong to them????????????????

I currently have a delphi one on the front of my defender at the mo. I was just looking through ebay and saw the said beasty and wondered if anyone had one and how it performed. The next one I will be going for will be from OME. To be honest I can't see how it will work when being extended, Compressed yes but not extended.

Seemed pretty steep to me aswell at £115 but just wondered if anyone had one and what they thought of it.

Hi all Has anyone ever used one of these 300342177732 (ebay number). Not sure how to link it but I'm sure someone will. What are peoples thoughts ? Many thanks

I use the Halfords pro tool kit and it has to be said I think its fantastic value for money. I to have replaced the bit of foam inside (bubble wrap works pretty well and is real easy to come by). I've broken a couple of the 1/4 drive sockets over the years and you dont even need the receit to get them replaced!!! I was so impressed I went and bought the black pro tool cabinet and tool chest. I think the only bit they wont replace is the ratchet insides.

I've decided on the VW holdings ones as I really want them galv and powder coated. Many thanks for all the help guys.

Does anyone have any pics of the ones carl makes ????

Does carl have a website?

Hi I'm Looking to put rock & tree sliders on my 90 to replace the existing plappy bit of ally along the sill. The question being that there's alot of difference out there in price for what is a very similar product, having looked around there seem to be some welded in sheds right up to the mass produced factory turned out numbers. I realise that there will be a difference in the thickness and quality of material used along with hot dipped galvanising and plastic coatings or just sprayed. I'm trying to find out which are the best ones to get for strength and life span? I would prefer the tree slider to be of the bent rounded end style with a black finish. Can anyone suggest the best to go for from their experiences. Many thanks

That looks good, greaseable rollers too! Is that for a standard length drum or the extended one?
