Finally got around to fitting the LED lights I purchased. Queue the pictures.

Old lights 55w

Bracket hardware, with adjustable angle and on the back of the lights is a semi captive nut that can slide the main body of the light left/right

Cheers,not a bad job apart from the gas soldering iron being a PITA
Those are a set of rear amber LED strobes lights I use when on the rallies (do recovery) there is also a set below the rear reverse and rear fog lights. I have a pair to go in the front grill as well.

The aerials are for rallies as well. From L to R
Mount for a 2m/70cms antenna (now moved to the front of the rack),
Spare mount
VHF High band
MSA Low band
MSA Low band A system/Red channel depending on the radio
Also there is a CB antenna on the drivers side gutter. 1999 Defender TD5 110

Tested the LED rear work lights in the dark - I think I need to alter the angle slightly.

Tidied up the rear x-member with a coat of chassis black and fitted the bushes for the clutch pedal mod. I already had the spring but no plastic clip or bushes. I think the pedal feels better.
But without the plastic bushes for the spring to sit in you could see wear on spring. 1999 Defender TD5 110

Did the 'alarm remote aerial' mod today, extended up into the roof lining. Very much recommended, can lock it from miles away now instead of 2 ft! Thumbs Up


That can be a double-edged sword though, when you're up the road in a coffee shop, keys in pocket, find a comfy chair to settle down into and you unlock vehicle without realising it.

Wasn't there a supposed urban myth/truth that the range could be extended by placing the fob near your open mouth when plipping it....
