    Front Door Opening Issues

    Hi, My defender 90 is having a problem where the front passenger door will not open from the inside. I have taken the card off, and have seen that when you pull the inside door handle, the linkage should pull a rotating wheel, pushing up another lever to open the latch. From what I can see...

    Defender front centre seat...or not?

    Only problem with your thinking, is that there is always a "something else", and they will never end up getting removed! :5bwilly_nilly:

    Defender front centre seat...or not?

    They look very well crafted! I like the black vinyl folding seats you get but i cant find them anywhere! Rarer than hens teeth! As you say FlyingPete, I may look at getting a rear step too, so that when the missus is demoted into the back, she wont complain so much about getting in and out! ;)

    Defender front centre seat...or not?

    FlyingPete you're a saviour! Will look at getting one side-facing seat each side at the back! Then gives me space for 2 more people and a cubby box in the front!

    Defender front centre seat...or not?

    Thanks a lot everyone for your input! I think the way I am going to go, is a front cubby box and two rear folding seats (one on each side as I'm pretty OCD with symmetry). I can see the argument for both, but I need practicality, and straddling the gearbox wouldn't be very comfy for any of the...

    Defender front centre seat...or not?

    Looking at possibly fitting a front centre seat in my '89 Defender 90, do I bother to buy one to refit it, or just get a folding seat in the back? The amount that it will be used (every second blue moon), I'm not sure which would: a) look better, b) will be practical, c) will fit (as I have...

    Hello from Aberdeen!

    Hello all! Joining from Aberdeen, currently have a 1989 Defender 90 fitted with a Disco 200 TDi engine. Will need help at times as I am not a Land Rover expert, but hope to get some helpful advice in this forum :) Will also be actively looking for Defender (and Disco engine) parts...
