I am seriously considering side and rear quarter Landyglass fitment. I have contacted Landyglass together with a local fitter from the Landyglass website for details of cost and process.
My question is thus does anyone have or know of anyone in my regional area that has this fitted that I can go and have a look at? I have never seen one close-up and would like to before I commit. I know Killer has experience of Landyglass and Gum has it fitted on his (which is the same colour as mine) but unfortunately I think they're both a bit far. It does look good though and it would potentially be another security layer. http://defender2.net/forum/topic19141.html?highlight=landyglass Thank you.

Would love to but am 'on call' so it is out of the question. I am currently not in the market for anything else and it's a long way to go. Be easier for me to visit you in Hertfordshire. Will send you a 'pm.' If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

I am thinking of rather than tinting the the standard rear windows in my 110 Utility to have landy glass fitted, although only yesterday have seen another product by Masai who are only 20 mins from me but have not heard or seen reviews of their product.
Interested to see if others have gone down this route and have any photos. |

After a visit to IRB this weekend, I'm tempted too. The benefits of seeing just behind the driver seat would be superb.

I wasn't aware that the 'opening' in the side of the vehicle increased, I thought the glass bonded to the existing panel ????

Matt,
I think it depends on internal trim. Obviously dependant on hole/cutting size with a hardtop perhaps the view would be more panoramic than say with a station wagon where the field of view wouldn't change due to internal trim fitted?
Will take you up on it Russ thank you. In particular closeups of the rear offside quarter panel top hinge area and the edges where the side and rear quarter panels meet on the edge please. Sorry to be so specific but it's a large outlay and I really would like to see as much detail as possible. If anyone that has this fitted and could oblige perhaps and post such pictures in the interim it would be great thank you. If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

I'll have a look for you as well Mal, I'll be opposite CSK, so should have time for some closeups, also I'll pop along to Landy glass as well.
I think from what I've seen it'll go well on your 90. PM inbound btw. DJ 1989 200tdi 90 csw 2011 110 usw Orkney grey Buy British 🇬🇧 Defender Clothing Designs available at http://www.rangesports.com/acatalog/Defender-Stuff.html |

Mal, ask and you will receive
Here's the hinge:  Click image to enlarge I'll get you a photo of the joint later on when the sun isn't so bright, the light isn't ideal for taking the photos! I am biased, but it does look good on grey

Damn that Landyglass is just darned sexy...
How secure/strong is it? as in smash and grab repellent... Would look great on a dark blue 110 I think...  |
