My TD5 110 CSW

Been on this great forum for a little while so thought it about time I posted up some photos.

My 110 TD5 CSW in Epsom Green.

Mods I have done so far:

Exterior
General Grabber AT on Black Modulars Standard Size
Black Chequer plate sills and wing tops (functional not too flashy I hope!)
Ashcroft 1.2 transfer gear set
Alive Stage one tune
EGR Removed
Waxoyl chassis
Mantec Swing away spare wheel carrier
Dirt D-fenders

Interior
Exmoor trim Elite front seats
Second row seats converted to Puma seats
Exmoor moulded matting and other sound proofing
Eberspacher parking heater with remote start (the ultimate in laziness)
Head unit and under seat subwoofer

Future Mods:
Add Anti roll bars
Intercooler and Alive Stage 2

As well as the daily commute have done 2 ski trips to Austria with another planned for next year, hence the transfer gear set and new seats to keep the wife and kid happy

Yours looks great Ray and tempting me to tint my rear windows too.

Think the black wheels really transform the look over the silver alloys.

2001 Defender 110 Td5 CSW Buckingham Blue

Chri$. Great looking truck! I'm hoping to fit puma seats in the second row of by 110csw td5 to fit in child no.3. I don't suppose you can recall whether the original middle row (outer) belt tongues fitted into the puma buckles? Obviously trying to save myself £115 per side for new belts.

Did you tackle the job yourself, if so nicely done sir!

Hi, yes the buckles fit. There are a few posts on here from people who have done the same. You will need the seats obviously and the floor plate that the seats lock into, there are also 2 securing plates that go under the vehicle, you will probably need to modify these (cut them down a bit) because otherwise you can't get them over the chassis. The only other fiddly bit is cutting out a small section in each of the rear wheel arches to allow extra room for the corner of the seats.

It does take a bit of effort but well worth it for the extra comfort and security.

I don't know the exact part numbers but they are Land Rover springs 150lb front and 180lb rear. Makes for a softer ride on the road but I wouldn't recommend them if you carry heavy loads.

Nice Landy - a friend warned me they "handle like the Turpitz" but I realised I'd always need more room than a 90 offered... lovely colour too!

2006 Defender 110 Td5 CSW Zermatt Silver

First off, nice 110.
I have a 56 plate 110 CSW and drawn to your post for several reasons.
Hope you don't mind me asking a few questions?

1. How do you find the Alive stage 1 tune and what additions to the remap have you done (egr, de-cat, etc)?
2. How involved did you find the 2nd row seat change to the Puma items? I have read various bits, but cost is stopping me at present as well as time involved.
3. How did you get on with the front dirt defenders with the sill plates? I have the dirt defenders ready to fit and offering them up can't make my mind up between trimming the sill plate or fitting over.
4. Are you still running a Defender transfer box with the stage 1 tune? If not, how do you find motorway journeys?
