DiscoDino Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Anyone know where I can source a lighter front Defender TD5 engine hood? Something light and with better ventilation is the objective... Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR90 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Will Warne posted some pics where he added ventilation to his existing (300) hood. Could you not combine that with maybe removing some of the steel reinforcing frame (and not climbing on it)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 some fab shops can get a bonnet onto a Louvre machine, it will need a repaint but louvres do shift the air.... Other option is Pacet Fans do a extractor fan for 90s, not the prettyest, but they do the job, saw a load for africa fitted with them.. Just a thought Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michele Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 [OT!] "FASTOP COUPE ROOF" I haven't seen this but it's not a bad idea... [end OT] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottydo Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 [OT!]"FASTOP COUPE ROOF" I haven't seen this but it's not a bad idea... [end OT] I think that roof looks pretty damn good so do the wing scoops better than the little ones you can get any way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michele Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 It could be a nice alternative to a truck cab,with the plus of a covered luggage area... If it was made of aluminium it would be in perfect LR style B) I don't have that money though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkieB Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 here's the link "FASTOP COUPE ROOF"I haven't seen this but it's not a bad idea... I think that's the 'prototype 90 sport hardtop' picture. It sounds from the blurb as though they make a truckcab version too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
