Evening all, sorry if this has been posted before, I have done a search and find bits and pieces but everyones Defenders seem to be a bit different. Can anyone tell me if all push button doors are the same on the 90 and 110, I am looking on Ebay and it seems to be a bit of a mine field. I need all 5 doors replacing and just dont know weather it is worth buying second hand ones to have them corroded to hell again in a couple of years. Some look ok in the pics.....but we all know what can happen when they arrive :(also does anyone know if a bulkhead replacement top half is available, with the vents. Th footwells are mint as is nearly all the lower half, the top bit under the screen though........holy crap, its totally u/s. Thanks for ay help.
 
Yes they are all the same inc Series 3's have ya self some slidy windows. You know ya want em.. :D only thing that's changed is the handles

YRM do Bulkhead repair panels. but if it's really fooked ya better with a 2nd hand bulkhead. Newbury show is on next weekend.. get ya self over there and see if there's one for sale..

Newbury show sounds like it would be a good day out, only prob is cost of getting there and time to travel etc. Think its about 700 mls there Lol. Slidy windows? hmm does thou mean elec ones?
 
My 92 J Defender had same problem with bulkhead. Got full length repair piece welded in without vents as never used them anyway and its one less place for water to get in. Corrosion on mine due to spilt in washer pipe which had rotted it from inside.

The thing is I did want to keep the vents to keep it looking original, I think I might just buy another bulkhead of fleabay and cut it under the seam and weld the new piece in. There seem to be a load of bulkheads for sale, considering the value of the Defender I am surprised so many are being broken:(
