double cab load area canopy suggestions
Hi all, new here so hope this is in the right section.

Hoping to get a new defender 110 DCPU, and will most likely need a solid canopy to the back for better security / weather proofing.

Ifor Williams a bit too utilitarian, so who makes the best value GRP ones ?

All suggestions / experiences welcome.
Thanks

If you like the canopy look, and want security, try the Patriot cage Smile

I am happy with the truckman one, although the price new is a little eye watering.

I picked one up second hand for £150 and it was in the right colour too which helped. 2002 Defender 110 DC

roof and sides from a series hard top (no windows or alpine lights) cut down to fit, £10 + a box of rivits and job done, you could even fit a back door if you wanted.

pics if your interested.

With a series hard top and sides you may as well make it into a utility. Series van sides and rear door, add a 110 roof and hey presto. Plus you will make serious money selling the double cab roof! 2002 Defender 110 DC
