[Rear door striker]

Is the striker plate/catch for the rear door the same as those for the lift handle front doors?

The catch for lift handle doors is MUC2959 (according to paddocks) but I cant seem to find one to suit the rear door specifically

I need 2 for my lift handle front doors and 1 for the rear door on my 90

If anyone can help I would be very gratefull

Many thanks

Lewis

hi lewis, are you after 2 strikers (lift up type) for the b posts of your 90? i converted to pushbutton a few years ago and may just still have the old ones lying around. if i can find em and your interested i'll post em to ya.

cheers paul

Thanks all, the only problem i have is that i am running a 3.9 V8 petrol so i am struggling to get a heater as such, unless i fit a small Aux tank for the diesel but then that would mean i would have LPG, Petrol and Diesel in the landy

even though mines diesel i fitted the seperate tank then i could use a red/kerro mix. fitted a 20lt plastic outboard motor tank behind the n/s/r wheel. it fits perfectly in the big empty space of the seat box. cut a hole in the top of the seat box for access to the filler. put a sender unit in the tank and a switch so i could read the fuel level from my dash fuel gauge, bit over the top realy as the full tank lasts for weeks. well worth the effort. though if you ever fit rear chequer plate corner protectors don't do what i did and drill a hole through the tank!!!!

I've got a wabasto thermotop c in my tdi. It heats the engine coolant rather than the interior. Has all the advantages listed above including instant demisted windscreen and a warmed up engine for less wear and better economy/and better throttle response (cold tdis are v sluggish). More expensive than a cab heater but equally worth it.

yes simon i'm such a wimp and was so impressed by my cab heater i was thinking of getting a pre heater aswell. i have to climb several VERY steep hills within the first mile of leaving home and my usual solution is to leave my engine running for 15mins when its rely cold. i'm sure it makes more sense to warm it up on red diesel from a pre heater. can you remote start it or does it have a timer?

Hi all,

Just thought i would see if anyone has installed and if so what type of cab heater. I am running a 3.9 V8 110 County and with the winter months appraohing i am turning in to a girl who like instant heat. Does anyone have any recommendations and if so which one and how easy was it to install.

bought an ebespacher D1LC off eblag a couple of years ago an fitted to my csw just behind the center cubby box. in almost 30 years of landy ownership and gazillions of £s spent on my various hacks it was the best £283 i've ever spent. left it running tonight for the first time this winter. when it really gets cold i leave running for weeks on end, uses a couple of gallons of red diesel a week from a seperate tank. i do have a split charging system and the 10m drive to work ensures a full battery. mine was from a bt van which i believe is quite common and does not need the seperate control/thermostat but to get the best from it try and get one with this piece of kit and the loom. eberspacher themselves were quite unhelpful with one or two wee snags i've had but the local dealer was just the opposite. the one helpful person i did speak to at eberspacher said put 10/15% kerro in with your diesel an it will burn cleaner and hotter but don't say i told you! you can download the manuals, wiring diagram etc from the canadian website.

can't wait to get into my warm dry landy tommorow!
