Someone else was asking the exact-same question here https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic93933.html.

| When the indicators are buzzing, try switching the hazards on and off a few times to see if it changes. The indicator relay is fed through contacts on the hazard light switch that in my case caused ex ... |

I’m 6’3" and all seat risers lift the seat too much to look out of the side windows easily.
The seats will adjust much further back - what stops them is the lip at the back of the seat box ... |

The rubber seems to part company with the underlying plastic case no matter what you do. Glueing doesn’t appear to work and you need to separate the case halves to replace the battery.
