Maybe my eyes are older than yours , So a pair of bumper spots I'm happy with on some very tight lanes .

who was the insurer please

sounds good , my engine is factory standard no cat , no egr , standard turbo etc etc

Hi following on from my other post , HOW has declaring Mods impacting your insurance price.

I used a mobile manchester lad , £100 there about's fitted new rubber + screen . im in macclesfield so not much in it distance wise . can dig his number out if interested

No cat or EGR from the factory , so other than the leather wheel , spots , side bars and boost alloys its stock , And how i want it to be . Cant do with light bars lift kits etc .

No light bar , A -bar with a pair of spots . Very handy round here with country lanes .

sofasurfer said bling would effect the resale value , So i was meaning i could remove them if i ever sold it . But im ringing first thing to ask if they make any difference

Sorry i meant in regards to re-sale value they could be removed . But i will inform the insurance

mmmmm yet as i said one insurance company wanted them , the other did'nt . Wishing now i had paid the extra and not fitted them . But legally i dont at least .

Best give them a call about wheels , bars , spots . s/wheel .

But spots and side bars only take 30 mins to remove , if i ever sold it otherwise its stock apart from landrover alloys + tyres . If i need a cheap pair of old steels got be put on .

Whats the score if you buy one with boost alloys fitted , rock sliders . spots . Rock sliders and spots is pretty obvious i guess , but wheels and tyres how would joe bloggs know any difference .

WHAT !!!!! they can all come off if thats the case .

1996 300tdi 90 Does anyone know the right answer to if seatbelts are needed in the rear bench seats or not . I asked my insurance broker about insuring as a 7 seater , they came back to me with one company wanting an extra £80 and no changes needed ie no seatbelts need fitting. the company im...

Hi what do you need to tell the insurance about as far as mods . DEF 300tdi 1996 . for example boost alloys spots A-bar steering wheel slick shift tree/rock sliders silicon hoses do i need to declare ???????

ive got a few BSP bits , i will compare and see . so they are a BSP thread .

Thanks Flossie

Are the hex plugs a taper

Hi Flossie , is that because you can get a hex key in more easily , my problem was there was not enough clearance between it and the stop lock bolt .
