Nice looking Defender. I opted for the 90.

Could you tell me, did you get 2 remote key fobs?
Is there a dummy cigar ligher in the cigar lighter socket?
Were you supplied the EKA code & the radio code?

Did you get a security card with the above written on it?

I got none of the above. I found the radio code & serial number details on a card that had been left in the battery compartment.

cheers,
n.

I got 2 remote things along with 2 keys.

I got given the radio code but no EKA.

The radio code was on a card which had the serial number and code on it. I am guessing they have been fobbing you off a bit.

Glynn,

Looks good mate, those wheels set it off fantastically. I do think the new motorsport type wheels on WMIK's would also be nice!!! I'll have to keep my eyes peeled.

Very true, and I had my ear to the ground for a set untill I found out that they only make them in 16x7

so no 285s.

What unit are you there with? Do you ever find yourself down 35s way?

Very very nice. I would have insisted you paying me for such a nice color. Just those headlight protectors doesn't do the job for me, but I presume it will be taken off if you want to fit a proper bull bar and winch?

We are limited to what we can do over here now with regards to bull bars as they dont meet the new legtislation Gerhard

We dont have Kudu bars like you guys!! You cannot teach stupid people to do clever things

The light guards are actually solid and brings the front of the wings inline with the grill, and I will be keeping them on. In addition I have a Mantec winch bumper (Superwinch Husky) with twin Dixon Bate 3.5 ton jaws to fit with an A-bar with spots.

As for the new rules, I think they are a load of cr@p!! end of the day I will have a huge lump of metal sticking out of the front of my Defender at hip height- that is going to do way more damage than any A-bar. But that is my belif and if the law makes me take it off I will, but until then it is staying.

The new abars actually have been proven to improve the front of the car as it makes it softer! shocking i know.

A word of warning on waiting - have an accident and you will be screwed...dont and you will be fine (most likely). Mike
