Kitting out my 110 County.
Hi all,

I have bought a 2008 110 County for work, I am an outdoor education instructor, and would like to get it kitted out and tarted up a bit including:-

Alloy Wheels
A Bar + spot lights
Rear work light
Lockable cubby box
Side Steps/Running Boards
Chequer Plating
Front and Rear Lamp Guards
Possibly Expedition Roof Rack with Lighting

Like some reccomendations for parts and suppliers please folks

The 110 will see VERY LIGHT but frequent off road use and lots of road use including frequent runs on the M25 so what AT tyre would be best?


Any help and advice greatly appreciated - or if anyone has any of the above in really good nick for sale.................... Wink

Cheers,

Phil.

I'd go with factory general grabber TR's... for light off road they're fine (they are an M&S tyre, so hae some grip) and quiet on the road. and last well on road.
i'vef just fitted a set to my 110 to keep the mileage off of the MT's

I originally got my security cubby from Exmoor Trim, a lot cheaper than Mobile Storage System but not as many bells and whistles. However I think they have updated the design since though.

An excellent bit of kit apart from the rubber mat inside, it really smelt and made everything inside stink of rubber too. Has now been replaced with a piece of closed cell foam.

Also when transferring it from my 90 to the Puma it sat too far forward and stopped the transfer lever from going into high range. Had to make a cut out in the rear lower corners to allow it to slide back over the lip at the back of the seat box. It then went straight on to the original mountings, perfect now!

As for All Terrains I would recomend BF Goodrich ATs, great tyres but not cheap. MAD COW
