  1. Well they look ok not in a hurry to fit them.if I want top of the line headlights I buy nightforce . I think the Australian use them on there ute s. I have used nightforce for hunting , you won't get better and their scopes are top of the line. Well hey ho they are E marked. If there are any children that would like to report the seller for fake/ copyright marks , the link to the seller at the top of the thread.
  2. OK did not know that. Ill post pic of the beam when I get them.
  3. That for halogen, if the headlights are carp they will be returned . All these headlights that are sealed led are made in CHINA regardless of price. If they have a good beam I'll fit them if not returned. I can't find any regs for led sealed units. You can't fit led bulbs to ordinary halogen units I know that , if they pass the mot have good beam , I know I am hoping here , prob a rectangular shaped light lol but if you don't try you'll never know
  4. Oh well , I was reading that there are no laws regarding led lights, their are for halogen ect e marked , but led none. I bought these to see what they are like. I mean where does everyone think the rest of the led stuff is made, its CHINA , I'll look into the led headlights and see what the law is , if they are square light beam just return , its worth a look and see look at this article https://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/blog/are-led-headlights-legal-in-the-uk/ Seems their is no law regarding led headlight units E marked . I ll see what the beams like. I'll post pic
  5. Are you sure they are striped, those heads don't look like m16. If the are striped just drill them with a 17mm bit put new m16 bolts right through to the rear side put a backing plate say 6 or 8 mm thick. Thats you sorted the old tow pack was fixed like that.
  6. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2pcs-Hi-Lo-HALO-7-Inch-Angel-Eye-LED-HEADLIGHT-PAIR-for-Land-Rover-Defender-/163939965391?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292 Whats wrong with these? Very cheap
  7. This was my first idea for reinforcement but canceled that and went with the 12mm square. Thanks for all the replies, I know now that's why I can't just extend it , don't ask you not know
  8. I think I just wait till I find the right one needing a chassis ect everyone assumes the chassis has reinforced everywhere its not . I email manufacturers before I built mine thinking the same. Mine is 150% thicker without any reinforcement. I think that these vosa ect checking peoples cars ect is because someone stuck them in , or there going to shows and some jealous person seen or checked the reg and its come up with say a 90 and its a 110 . People are like that
  9. I am the manufacturer of the chassis I make my own, with ref to 110 needing a iva yes I was not going to extend the chassis of the 110 just the load carrying tub bit ie like a ute in auz. Hers a pic of my last chassis. That one there cost £450 but I bought all new spring carriers ect, so I am hoping it would not need new carriers if I get a wrecked 110, you can reuse them , I learned that from reusing the seat box carriers I reused them.
  10. Well I will explain , don't want to start arguments ect. I figure the chassis will cost about £350 galvanised new , paint about 2k 1 stage about£20 a litre say 5 litres paint 3 litres hardener under £250 , all the new rubbers ect guess £200. Truck king cab dont know how much £1000? New props guessing £200 and all the rest with the £2k left. I am thinking I am better getting a old wrecked 110 , as said before stops all the dvla stuff. It the chassis stuff that usually causes arguments. The reason I am thinking about it is I like the look of the king cab and thinking building my own rear box like Mike @britannica Restorations. I learned with the 90 how to build chassis made some mistakes that cost money example you don't need to buy new spring hangers if the old ones are OK, you can reuse them when galvanised you can't tell the difference . If someone know price of king cab I know a standard cab and roof about £300 odds. Just an idea just now.
  11. No it would not cost anywhere near that , the defender that is. Thats well out of my price range. The defender conversion to 130/110. I would like a double cab with a bit on the end small load area. I was thinking about 3-4 k , probably better selling the 90 buying a 110 and make it a double cab
  12. I have never seen one of them before. How much , is that a kit car ? There are no prices i can see , only £1000 deposit
  13. Oh so it doable . Would i get a q plate or a new reg?
  14. Heres my stupid idea , well can it be done? Can I rebuild my 90 into a 130 ? What laws am i /would I be breaking. ? Same engine gearbox axles ect. I can't really see what would be wrong with doing that. You can build kit cars ect? Educated me
  15. I am not getting angry with anyone , I am just pointing out I do not believe goverment propaganda. If you really believe that then good for you. I do research into something when someone says , this is for that ect. Re the covid I suggest you look at the ONS data for England, goverment data over the last 30 years of monthly death totals all cause. It shows there is no pandemic but you'll not get that on BBC ect. Anyone can believe what they want , I choose to do research into anything , I don't just believe goverment conspiracy theorys , because if you look you'll find they are telling falsehoods .
  16. So I take it you believe in man made climate change? Clean air? ect. Oh well, was going to comment but there no point. Changed my mind Wait till there no gas or oil heating only electricity and green at that. Just look at texas in the USA thats your familys future , if you just accept it . Climate lockdows are coming. I would stop all the trucks going into the lez or whatever it called , but the elite would not like that. I however am installing a diesel generator in our home and store of red diesel, for the coming blackouts, I can mind the 70s but then that was caused by strikes , this will be cause by green nonsense ie no coal fired power stations or gas , when the power starts going on and off. THIS AINT ABOUT CLEAN AIR SAME AS COVID 19 AINT ABOUT A VIRUS
  17. Hi it just dawned on me that I have just finished a colour changed, ie respray and the lettering for the bonnet , that I took off. What size is it for early ie 1989 bonnet. I know they never had it originally but it was on mine, so anyone know or is it just an ebay job for 3d lettering?
