The short version is, the side pictured (passenger) was easy the other side (drivers) not so easy (see previous post).
Not sure of the total cost but if we were to say £18.00 that would more than cover it.
The vents fitted are LR as fitted to the Puma dash I think they were about £2.50 each and I purchased from a scrappy two TD5 demister ducts http://www.landroverworkshop.com/diagrams/cooling-heating/air-conditioning/demister-flaps_52936#1
charged £8.00 for the two.
In to the duct I drilled a 20mm diameter hole into the side I wanted the pipe to exit left hand side of the left hand duct and inserted an adapter I had made from aluminium. This allowed me to connect a length of 25mm dia flexible pipe £3.00 metre (fish pond water hose from local garden centre) http://www.gardensite.co.uk/Aquatics/Black_Corrugated_Hose_25mm_1ins_per_metre.htm
Made a second adapter to fit into the side of the dash covering the hole in the dash with the Puma vent it worked but no better than the previous trunking demister fitted to the top of the dash.
Now I removed the original screen ducting and pipe completely made another adapter and piped the side window demister into the sealing bush that now worked very well but no screen demister. I pondered for a while because having a heated screen do I really need a screen demister? should I cut a second hole and have both risking neither working very effectively.
Students won the day because they wanted to go for it, another hole 31.00mm dia was cut lined with a rubber grommet 121108 http://www.autoelectricsupplies.co.uk/product/331/category/117(to secure the pipe)
Both screen and side window demisters were refitted and both worked effectively result.

Out of interest are your seats held back by the original catch mechanism on the sides or have you secured them another way?

Excellent, thank you Tim. I'm part way through building my 3d printer so if you have the .STL files of the drawings...

As it happens the local landrover breaker is a friend of mine, known him for years. I can pm you contact details if you like? It is in West Cornwall, not far from here.

Great your are building your own 3D printer, the concept of this process is as revolutionary as the invention of the wheel. The changes that this process will make to designs now and in the future is difficult to visualise. I have been very lucky having used a number of them using different materials, I will have to stop, as you can gather I am hooked on them, indecently are you building one to your own design or from a kit?
Sadly I do not have the files as all work was completed on divisional computers and part of students work the files remained with them.

Can anyone recommend a decent used parts dealer or site? I need side steps urgently, my girlfriend is miniscule and the pleasure I initially derived from removing the door and grab handles and watching her try to climb into my raised 110 has now passed since I have to give her a leg up.

The best changes for me was putting renault scenic 2nd row seats in and a quick release steering wheel to aid security.
The steering wheel is smaller with a flat bottom making it easy to get in and out.

huffhuff I have E-mailed the uni asking for the ducting files if they still have them, "it will be a long shot".

You can't reach the indicator from the steering wheel with the boss I have however there is a slim version which should allow you to drive as normal.

Can you tell me what make the slimline boss is?

I bet a number of members have 3D printers, why not start a new section on Landyzone for 3D modelling and share design ideas, designs, files and chat.
