Nick, headlights... I have been looking into this, sealed beams are still available however I suspect yours will be like mine and missing the rubber caps, you can get them on eBay:

Rubber Bulb Cover H4 7" headlight Defender 90/110 Tdi | eBay

This should stop the lights filling up with water and is cheap. I am struggling to get sealed beams trade as no one really does them, there are some online but most are not actual sealed beams but conversions, even some of the ones advertised as sealed beams so if thats the route you choose be carefull...


Seb, might be interested on sunday, I have got me exhaust fixed and my headlights done, I am waiting on a paddocks order now though with some new goodies so hopefully they will turn up and I can get mine back on the road...

Thanks for the link Jon.
I need at least one new light as the bottom has rusted out on he drivers side.
Think I'll buy a pair and keep my existing good one as a spare.

A few handy points mentioned, some for the notebook. You got heaters back yet Brian?

Well done matey. Pleased for you.
No hurry up and break something. I need some cash.
 
I got me some new bits :) just fitted my new snow cowl for the heaters (just like Sebs;)), new clear indicator lenses as I felt like being a bit more barry'd up and a full sound deadening and carpet set so it's like a luxury car inside now! Also done me A-frame ball joint as it was hanging out and stuck me 88 degree stat back in so got decent heaters now, was a lovely quiet, warm and controlled drive home!

So who's doing Essex off road this weekend? Is there some laning going on as well do we know?
 
We went out last night, did the sexy seven and finished off the night with a disco jammed in a ditch.
2am finish but well worth it.
 
Was a good night some good lanes that ive never done before a few old ones revisited, shame about the ditch moment but all was gravy in the end.
 
Thanks for your help guys that Ditch was Nasty I really enjoyed it great lanes was thinking maybe bringing me little camping stove make a brew while we are out nice hot cuppa :)
 
Well unsuccessful attempt at removing the bull bar. May have to cut it off or grow some bigger muscles!

Opps :rolly:
 
I'm picking up a disco for breaking tommorow.

If any body needs anything then let me know.

I'm stripping it and scraping it within 2 weeks.

I think Mikey wants the front axle and the drivers seat is spoken for if its ok.

It's a d1 5 door 300tdi with blown head gasket.

Colour is green but not sure of interior.

I won't know all the details till tomorrow.
