    Hi all, I'd like to replace the standard steering wheel in my Defender with a leather XS one. I have a MY07 puma 90 - I believe that's a 48 spline wheel.

    Need help fitting accessories...

    Yeah that would be great thanks! I am trying to do the jobs but not having much success - I can't seem to remove the bracket for the mudflap on the underside of the rear crossmember. The screws are loose but just spinning round. Any ideas?

    This seems a cheap defender

    There's lots of "cheap" ones on eBay at the moment - and there is more coming on all the time. Must be spam. When I was looking at buying a Defender in October 2015 I found one I liked near Reading and contacted the guy. I remember his listing as he said he bought the Defender for his wife and...

    Defender Locks

    Thanks for the help guys. I might need to get someone or a place to do it. Any recommendations for a place in London or someone on here do a homer on it for some cash? Thank you!

    Defender Locks

    That's good news. And how easy are they to fit? Sadly I'm not very mechanically minded.

    Defender Locks

    Hello all, I have recently bought my Defender and when I parked up today and got out I didn't realise I'd left the keys in the ignition and managed to lock the drivers door with a house key. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I can do the same on the passenger door. I'm a newbie to all things...
