Yes - I go with your choice but would spray the lamp covers to either match the body or otherwise tone down. Looks like a poser's truck otherwise..."Look At My Stuff".

Work for Lucas, do you? :) Nope!

Used these for side lockers on 2 Defenders now. Very good alternatives to the v expensive metal jobs. Used a plastic primer and cellulose topcoat. Some support underneath is needed for heavy load use. You might want to think about how you mount the doors. I've found it best to put the locks at...

Aluminium tape will seal the hole well enough until you can solve the problem permanently. As for securing "pulled" self-tappers,either use a bigger one or a rivnut and machine screw? There are lots of other ways, but they come into the "bodge" category, like wrapping the old one with insulating...

Despite my annoyance with "some things Landrover" I have to agree with your general point. It's the difference between "reliable" (they're not) and "serviceable" (they are)...and by anyone with a big hammer or, in this case, a bit of emery and some time. I'd rather have the second characteristic...

For sale....PM?

Wot he ^ said. Carry both types, easy to use.

From our experience in hot places, a coolant alarm is good insurance. The oil pressure sensor doesn't kick in until you've lost it all, so a pressure gauge will warn you of an impending problem and an oil temp gauge might be an advance warning of that. A turbo gauge will warn you of boost...

....the mind boggles....;)

Marelli. Got mine from Devon 4x4 (3 years ago) and decided to go for the 100Ah since the cost difference was minimal and I have extra loads (sometimes). An easy swap although you'll need to change the drive pulley - they'll advise on why.

Hiya. Haven't responded up to now since you seem determined to buy "off the shelf". Lots of easy ways to do this DIY at a fraction of the cost of the option you prefer.....Do you have a rear w/w system and need to incorporate the motor? I assume from your q's that you do, in which case most...

A few notes on a heater box refurb here.

Easy. The back of the canoe - mounted inverted - sits on the roof tent assuming it's mounted towards the rear of the rack. The front sits on the front of the rack, suitably supported to get it level if you're fussed. I have a sea kayak which I load using that principle. The major issue is "how...

Yes, we're really lucky to have this part of the UK to wander about in. If the SNP would stop fiddling with it then it'd be perfect! As regards the boxes on the second floor, we find it a good place to stash wet kit and muddy boots since we live in the truck and a muddy, wet dog is more than...

Extra fuel for a 100 miles or so might be a wise precaution, 10 litres will be enough. As for water....you won't have a problem with that, almost certainly!;) If you go over Easter it'll be busy in some areas but you'll avoid the worst of the midgies. IME best months are May and June for...

Good luck for your trip. The NC500 has become a victim of it's own success, so you might want to plan to get away from The Circuit for a day or two and just enjoy the views of something other than the campervan in front of you that you can't get past. Lots of superb wildcamping to be had, but...

Had a similar experience when I tried to contact them with a fitting enquiry on a swingaway carrier....a Big Ignore. Not impressed.:(

If they're extended arches, then (from the pic) not by very much. An ugly fitment which you should consider removing, IMHO! Given that they're not much bigger than standard, you might be able to refit with OEM without too much restoration work. Might the tyres be "outside" the line of the arches...

Tee Hee!:). Next thing you know, it'll be off to the stores to ask for a Long Weight and a tin of tartan paint...To do most of my glue jobs I've turned to JB Weld. It seems to stick just about anything to anything else and doesn't crack/peel off/melt like other things might.

Sorry to have missed your question...yes, we still plan to go but the Brexit nonsense is putting a bit of a spanner in the works at the moment. We have a new dog and want to take her with us, but the rules might change and/or make this difficult. We're researching the options, but if we go it'll...
