Quite possibly. All I could find last night was AMR3600 which is a range rover and rover 200/400 interior light switch. |

Okay little time spent on her today, started to strip out the footwell insulation as it was feeling a little damp and the dash as it seemed a little crusty and found this:

They are indeed heated seat switches with (i suspect) laser etched covers and a hole for the indicator light. Neat solution.
I notice the panel is actually tapered to fit the TD5 dash too. Whoever did this, did it well. |

Blimey Mash, what a mess, how old is it?
Hope you can get to it all and stop it before it gets too bad. It needed you that one 2007 90 Puma - Love it - Best car I have ever owned.

Sorry, just seen it's a 2002. Must have been leaking for years to get like that.
Must get my bolts out on my 07 and have a look, if all is ok put them back with plenty of sealant. Interesting vehicle, what will you use it for? 2007 90 Puma - Love it - Best car I have ever owned. 1989 Ninety 200tdi - Love it - Second best car I have ever owned. 1951 80" Series 1 - Love it - Third best car I have ever owned. |

I can't help thinking that the front support arms for the extended roof rack have contributed greatly to your rust issues...

Update time, oh how I love having a workshop to use in this weather, pushing this beast in and out however is not so fun.
So as I am awaiting a few bits on the engine side I thought I’d carry on with my war against rust, door cards off and out came a wire brush and a tube of rust converter: Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge The drivers door is very bad and will take a lot of work to recover, both doors have been welded in the usual area they tend to crack. I then moved on to the dash that has rotted badly, tried to price these up and I can only find them around £1300 
So I shall do my best to repair this one, the left hand section that covers the wiper motor, well on the older ones is beyond saving so I will have to get a new one at some point. Click image to enlarge So with all of that done I thought I would move onto the rear door, this has an additional lock on the rear an at some point the key was lost so I have not been able to open the door, so a little bit of time and I was in. Stripped off the door card and: Click image to enlarge It’s like new so that’s a bonus, well apart from a few dents. With the back now fully open I could sort out the back and see what I am missing from the front end, so I found most parts but now need to get the two top brackets and Top radiator bracket, oh well. I did also find a bag of seals and copper washers so it would be rude not to try eh: Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge All seals and copper washers swapped over, now at this point I am finding more and more bodges and cut corners on Buggsy making me wonder what else might be wrong, the egr has failed a while ago and the inlet manifold was filled thick black sludge, a quick clean and a few new bolts to replace some of the missing ones and I thought I’d give it a try. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge She runs as you can see she’s currently putting out more smoke than a chally 2 on start up but she runs. Now my injectors are not coded to my ecu and for some reason I have 3 green Top and 2 black Top injectors, the white smoke stinks of diesel and it doesn’t seem to be drinking coolant so now a bit more fault finding is required. 90 wolf - Jasmin http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic39408.html

The current plan is to do it up as a mobile mechanics truck, my job role might be changing and depending what I move onto I will be doing some mechanics on the side, this wagon just came up at the right price, and so far I’m still well within the cost of buying a runner. 90 wolf - Jasmin http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic39408.html 90 V8 - Maggie http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic42564.html 110 TD5 - Buggsy http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic59029.html 52HG25 lightweight https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic72342.html D3 Hse - Fiona Capri 2l S - Anna Think I might have a problem............ |
