    Series Land Rover tilt

    Yes just fitted one to my 109 truck cab. make sure you have all the metalwork that fits on the rear of the cab. there's a goal post that goes around the window and drain channels that go out to the side. then there are a few little rope guides that go on the side and rear cappings.

    relays

    all the extra electrical items are fitted with relays so I will fit a relay operated from the ignition switch to operate all these extras. this way I will not leave things on by mistake. May also run heater wipers and washers through this as well to keep the area around ignition switch uncluttered
