Where can I get an electric switch for the rear window heater? The guts of mine is missing.
What have you done to your Landie today.

Rear crossmember IS shot! I need a new one, and some chassis welding, before the MOT...
The ones by Pressbrake look good, and the price is right, but it's a 4+ hour journey there, and then 4+ back again. I don't know anyone in the East Yorkshire area that does welding
(Well, not mates-rates type welding...)

Dismantled the ignition switch because I'd permanently lost the key and really had to move it out of the way. Then found the keys. Ho-hum...

Now that is frustrating
On the downside, I spent an hour fiddling with me Landy when I should've been working.
On the upside, I'll get to put it back together tomorrow. And I've still got the key which kind of goes with the Scraaatchy look.
Washed, t cuttet and carnauba waxed my disco. Got all the winter crud of her. She is now ready to get dirty, but with the wax protecting the bits. She doesn't look right clean though. Whilst cleaning found that the lower front crossbar is rusted through and the two thin metal straps that attach the rear wheel arches to the body work are rusted through, oh and. The rear silencer hook is about to go so rigged up a wire coat hanger to act as a catch if it goes befor replacement. Mmmmm me thinks a full waxoyl is needed. All other bits just have the usual surface rust. Thank goodness. Well it wouldn't be fun if there wasn't anything to do

Took mine to the tip after clearing out the garage. Then took it into town, I parked it up on the pavement next to a X5, couldn't help noticing when people went by they were eyeing up the Defender rather than the X5. Mine is a working one not a show one but still gets the eye.
