That Wiper mod was the best thing ive done to a defender in terms of every day use. Something I never thought i'd need and found myself using all the time once I had it.
110 Still looks great Rog ![]() |

Thanks Tom...
![]() The wiper mod was too easy to do and equally easy to set up and adjust... ![]() To be fair, with very little use to date, it is not hard to keep the Special looking smart... ![]() ![]() The GREEN One...

I don't know what you mean Pete...
![]() Yes, really pleased with the mirrors, although it was a bit of a sod getting the old ones off... ![]() As you can see, I went with one of each in the end, but have not yet tried them out on the road... ![]() ![]() The GREEN One...

Intermittent wiper relay is a no brainier !
Also went for the floor heater deflectors, a steal as well. Door handles not too cracking lasted 8 months, and ended up going for some leather ones that are a 100 times better than standard.

Hi Rog, hope you had a good Christmas and all that!
As for the above, no changed the originals to the MUD UK ones. They only lasted 8 months, originals were digging into my thigh so went for flexible ones. Did find a use for one of the originals on the MSS Drawer! ![]() Happy Days Rog.
