I also suggest that you carefully read through the entire thread I copy here below before buying a set of rear SVX style lights. http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic11782....lights+fit Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation. http://youtu.be/yVRlSsJwD0o https://youtu.be/vmPr3oTHndg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GtzTT9Pdl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABqKPz28e6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLZ49Jce_n0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvAsz_ilQYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8tMHiX9lSw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dxwjPuHIV7I https://vimeo.com/201482507 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSixqL0iyHw |

Probably right. And when you compare the prices and you see that Mobilecentre is a price everything that is needed included, but with Mud you still have to buy the plinth for each lamp separately at 9.60£ a piece, the first is going to work out better too. I have bought things from both companies, always good experiences, but Mobilecentre also are a site sponsor on here.
Eric P.S. I suggested that you would read that copied thread carefully, just be aware that you may have to drill new holes in your rear panels for these 95mm plinths. Not exactly plug 'n play compatible if you have standard lights now. You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation. http://youtu.be/yVRlSsJwD0o https://youtu.be/vmPr3oTHndg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GtzTT9Pdl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABqKPz28e6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLZ49Jce_n0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvAsz_ilQYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8tMHiX9lSw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dxwjPuHIV7I https://vimeo.com/201482507 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSixqL0iyHw |

You don't have to drill holes in the rear panel! Just drill holes in the plinth to match your existing rear panel clips. Ray My build thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic17615.html |

Probably right. It is a long time ago, but the need for new holes drilling was mentioned in the below thread. Which seems only the case when using non genuine 95mm plinths.

i purchased mine from Dun Bri Group. Genuine Perei make. Really good price. Found some plinths on eBay (correct ones) and then a bit of wiring and sourced connectors ,as luckily this is my line of work. All in about £210
But as recommended on here by others, the kits supplied ready to go are also good and will save you money  2015 90 XS Santorini Black |

Is it possible to screw the rear lights from the back? If I'm going to spend several £100s on lights I want to make sure they are at least thief proof!

I'm not really sure how you'd do it. You could just buy some security screws and screw them in from the front as usual. Obiously all security screws have tools readily availiable to undo them, but it makes it a bit more difficult for the oportunist in a car park.

Alloy plinths and lights from CSI parts, Great stuff I like them (still need to change the fog and reverse light plinth)

I've just had an email from Thomas at CSI saying he's getting some of the plinths machined up next week to fit perei lights after I gave him all the measurements.
