Why would it be bad that the seatbelt lock is part of the seat frame?

Hey guys, Has anyone tried putting the 3rd row bench seat out of a Caddy maxi into the back of a defender? (e.g. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Caddy-Maxi-Rear-Seats-3rd-Row-Double-Bench-Seat-New-condition/283956674220?hash=item421d22feac:g:kcIAAOSwRl1eMVmA) I can't find any dimensions of the...

considering MOTs shouldn't any auxiliary lights be on a separate switch and not come on with main beam?

you'll only spend more thousands with advice from here :)

Parts list in case you'd like to add up how much it cost me (does not include the many sections of pipe and hoses that I didn't use!!!!). Other sellers exist I'm sure this is purely for reference so you can get the right size parts if you want to do the same thing. From top to turbo: Snorkel...

Result: Had a bit of trouble fitting the snorkel top as it was a bit big but padding it out with an end off one of the many spare hoses I've got it's now solid. Should also say that she seems to breath a lot easier now and the turbo actually seems to kick in better. Do not disagree with...

So what I ended up with: oil catcher pipe extended: (It got shorted when in place to line up with the T) Turbo pipe first section: Air filter section made up (even though had to remove input hose again as not enough room to get the corrugated snorkel hose to fit): I had to modify the bracket...

oh yeah, I also worked out eventually that I can't just get rid of the oil catch pipe, well not without even more bits to try and fit, so that resulted in another rethink.....

I started buying all the pipework to connect the snorkel but have had it in my mind for a while now to get rid of the standard air filter; thus the project expanded a little to get a full set of new pipes between turbo and snorkel. Matching the various IDs and ODs to make everything fit was a...

So the Nakatanenga snorkel came from 4x4overlander pretty damn quick. Nicely packaged. The only think I didn't like is that the welding wasn't complete all the way round the wing-top plate:

A few posts to follow with how over the last couple of weeks I've spent all the fuel money I've not used on too many wrong sized bits of kit and how I eventually got everything connected.

lol, they put their phone number. feel free to correct them.

Trim to fit. Just got a Nakatanenga snorkel delivered and will be trimming to fit as required. It's just a pipe. Ram head will be easier than the mushroom top if you lower it too much.

go for the final solution. mass poisoning followed by rooting out survivors.

ah yes, been there. make sure it's been painted fully inside. it's a chance to see if you tanks got any holes too...... like mine did.

welcome. without pictures it's all lies though.

Well someone got creative with the dashboard for sure.
