I review five products for your Defender that you can fit with a screwdriver - almost!

- More upgrades for our Land Rover Defender, but this time I was looking for some easier jobs. So I've fitted LED side repeaters, extra deep A-Pillar trims, an A-Pillar grab handle and a snow cowl. And then there's the LOF pedal spring that took a couple more tools and a plaster for poor old Steve.
Enjoy.

It lucky VPLDS0674 'Mat set genuine' is still available because VPLDS06744A 'Bilge pump genuine' and VPLDS0674B 'Bailing bucket genuine' have been NLA for some time 😂
Keep up the great work 👍
Cheers for the vid. Looking forward to more upgrades.
Our poor mascot will be off for a week with that finger😂
I've had the LOF spring sitting in my tool box for a year perhaps I'll finally get round to fitting it now
The common misconception is that the spring would help clutch heaviness to all defenders, is not true. For best results depending on the vehicle engine/year of manufacture you might also need to combine it with master cylinder from LOF, slave cylinder from LOF , or completely abandoned the spring and use either master or slave cylinder.and Is not very clear on their website to be fair. Greatly enjoyed the video so please keep up good work.
Well…
Thx for the update sir… THAT is what makes the old defender so fascinating to run.
There are a lot of things anyone can do to improve.
Something Land Rover should have kept in mind whilst getting out the new one… but…
Having said THAT … INEOS is not better … 😂
Greetings from Germany everybody, from a proud owner of a 110 HT 👍
I can't remember from your video when you changed the pins on the vent flaps... But did you subsequently change the foam seals? Easy job and could be where your water is getting in
That's a definite possibility. I'll be doing them shortly!
What size screw are those in the grab handle? and how long would the extra long one be?
