    Should I be concerned about this surface rust on drivers side door pillar 90 CSW

    It was given a full repaint by them in around 2010/2011. Would’ve been around 11 years old at the time, it’s of course 22 years old now. there’s no damp or water getting in to that rust patch though so not sure why rust is present to begin with. I’ll treat it tonight and see how it goes.

    Should I be concerned about this surface rust on drivers side door pillar 90 CSW

    thanks Thing is I don’t know if it’s leaking still now or not. Only owned it three weeks. The patch has never been wet when it’s been in my ownership or anything and I’ve driven in heavyish rain. My Landy was restored by Silkstone 4x4 back in 2010/2011 so maybe this was something which was...

    Should I be concerned about this surface rust on drivers side door pillar 90 CSW

    Noticed this patch of rust on my drivers side door pillar of my 1999 300 TDI CSW just below where the seatbelt is. passenger side is absolutely fine by comparison. I’ve never known it to be wet or anything driving about in rain so I am unsure if it’s perhaps an old rust patch that was...

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Gave the prize of my vintage cassette Walkman collection (Walkman DC2) a run up earlier. It’s a perfect match for my retro styled Blaupunkt Bremen SQR46 DAB model.

    your right if the U.K. ones are smaller then I’m gonna have issues with the paintwork I think. Guess I’ll leave them for now.

    Defender 90 Unusual front light lenses?

    Back of mine is like this I’m a little curious why mine had these fitted, but nice to know it’s just a North American Alternative. I think I might leave them alone for now

    Defender 90 Unusual front light lenses?

    sounds like to change it to standard U.K. spec that I’d have to change all the front black surrounds too and the lights as well?

    Defender 90 Unusual front light lenses?

    it’s a 1999 CSW 90 based here In the U.K. so unsure why it would have NAS lights on it from manufacture? it’s a very late 300 TDI registered in 1999 though

    Defender 90 Unusual front light lenses?

    Hi all was at a car show with my 1999 300 TDI 90 CSW and someone pointed out that my front lenses for side lamp and indicator appear to be MOD style rather than standard. Does anyone know if that is the case? They are attached below, can I just buy some cheap lenses which are the standard more...

    Car Stereo Options for a 90 CSW

    Well I ended up getting one and its really impressed me. Looks the part and sounds very nice too. I upgraded the standard speakers to some decent little Kenwoods keeping the old speaker spacers and surrounds. I wouldn’t mind get two rear channels in time though, apparently mounting speakers...

Just below the fuse box it is very slight but if I dig my finger into the corner of the carpet it’s a bit wet. the fuse box and the rear bulkhead portion directly behind the...

    Interior courtesy light LED upgrade. Radio not working

    I’m such a plank but both my interior courtesy lights were broken on my 300 90 CSW and thought a cheap LED upgrade would improve brightness inside. it worked fine for about 30 seconds, then put both of them on in front and back after the upgrade and they went out and discovered fuse 2 blew...

    Car Stereo Options for a 90 CSW

    In the end I think i've settled on going for a modern reproduction of the 1986 Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46. This headunit looks the part, but features DAB+, Bluetooth audio for music and phone, and an SD card slot and USB charger. I've never installed a head unit before, all totally new to me. Just...
