Series 3 Running a 4 door topless?

Hi all,

I would love to remove the door tops & rear quarter panels, fold the windscreen down and run around town topless. Wind & flies in my face! This however is not so easy as I'd hoped, with our 4 door Station Wagon.

So, what are my options? DIY the B-pillars into detachable parts, do the same to the second row doors (which need restoring anyway)? Are B-pillars available with detachable tops? Anybody went the DIY route?

The second row doors are 1 piece, unlike the front doors where the tops are removable. I've discovered Ashtree Land Rover sells new/restored galvanized second row doors. These are rare and come at a hefty price. It also leaves the B-pillars which are one piece.

Scientific research (aka googling lazily from the couch) did not turn up much. Search results get clouded by many a picture with topless subjects but hardly any land rover content)...

Cheers!

I've seen pics and a write up somewhere (lro maybe?) Where that was done professionally to a 110 sw.
Can't remember much about it though!
Maybe have a search for soft top 110 Defender? There's not a lot of difference between 109 and 110 construction wise.

Easily done with a lwb std hard top or tilt. It's the doors that are the problem.

Well the doors are covered, albeit for a princely sum. It's the undividable B-pillars that would remain. And look silly. Unless I fix a rollbar to that.

That's what they did on the 110 I mentioned iirc. On the 110 you need the b post for the seatbelts.
