Sorted through all wiring apart from Heater now everything else is working very well, Was really pleased that gearbox is better than my red 90. Made exhaust brackets today and took off back door for paint.
Hopefully all the plastics will be primed tomorrow ! I can see the light at the end of the Tunnel

Did you need to use a plastic primer on the light surrounds before spraying with the two pack paint?

I don't really understand the new two part/pack paint system.

You would need to spray them with an adhesion promoter/plastic primer or the likelihood of the paint peeling off is very high.

2 pack isn't really new, it's been around for years. Basically it's a 2 part system that you hardness with an isocyanide based hardener (that's the dangerous bit). It cures to a very hard finish. It will stick to basically all substrates if appropriate prep and priming has been done.
 
Colour me impressed it looks awesome! Wish I could like it twice haha. Hopefully lasts longer than 27 :p
What do you have left to do?
 
Yes I hope so at least I've tried !
Paint back door, sills/ floor plates. Fit seats roof lining, carpet, fit radio and Mot ! Then sort a Tonneau cover
 
Only word I could use is... "AMAZING" Truly amazing!

Along with Aaron M... you guys are an inspiration, a great motivator to keeping these old girls on the road
 
Busy day !
Made speaker box's and fitted speakers, Fitted Seats but not connected heat pads yet, put roof liner in god that was a tight fit looks good though in black alcantara. Fitted DAB radio and aerial
Pictures to follow
 
I dunno whether to go for black or not it looks alot better but makes it dark inside too especially with van back
Can't believe how much you've done so quickly!
 
Been 10 month's of work every evening until 8 or later when painting and long days every weekend . not just on my land rover as I work on my brother in laws projects as he helps me !
Alex do you go on the other forum about defenders ? White transit van seen casing a 90 at Beeston has a white ball on the aerial
