A few little updates to the 90 - nothing major but it changes the look a bit.

For a while I've been toying with the idea of 95mm lights all round on the back. I nipped into IRBdevelopments over the weekend and there was a set of genuine plinths and lights waiting there on the shelf and I couldn't say no!

Ian made up 2 adapter looms (rather than spending something like £50 odd quid each for genuine ones) and they were fitted - dead easy.

Also Mrs Grafty and I have been away in my sisters caravan and after 1000 miles of towing my Provent has started to collect oil. Over those 1000 miles I would say it collected 75ml of oil. I don't know if that's good, bad or indifferent but I now have a benchmark.

A few parts have arrived for the 90 as well. Electronic headlight adjusters being one of them - unfortunately they don't work as the plug in the loom has been dangling in the inner wing for 17 years and the contacts have corroded. I need to either buy new wing looms or try and find the plugs (or pins) for the motors.

Anyway, enough waffle, here are a couple of pics of the updated back end

Looking good there grafty lad, have a look on here, to see if you can get the connectors, I made a fan loom up for the metro, using the connectors from here. https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/connectors/...onnectors/ Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back
