It is pretty much but if your ok with a screwdriver and have a good memory it's not too bad. I took the oppertunity of the dash being out to cable tie all the wires securely to stop rattles and to tape and insulate the heater pipes and insulate as much bulkhead as I could at the same time. As you probably know the heater is in the td5 is pretty poor so every bit helps and the pipes leading to the vents were hardly in the sockets so well worth duct taping in place!!


Thanks for the tips. My heater isn't that bad, takes a while to get there.
Is it just the top dash off? 1999 Defender TD5 110

It's much easier to take the top, centre stereo section and passenger side centre section completely off (it's not that much extra work and makes it all a lot easier) and just unscrew and let the clocks dangle as you will need to pull about on the inner bracing to get the wheelboxes in as they are fiddly.

Also the drivers side vent needs taking out to replace the drivers side wheelbox.

hi gavin, i was the first owner and had the vehicle delivered directly to j e engineering in coventry. they did the koni suspension, remap, intercooler and silicon hoses plus the lights in the grille and the rev counter in the dash (clock moved next to rear view mirror); bourton land rovers cut the side windows into the hardtop, plus cut the rear bulkhead down, fitted the checker plate, rear nas lights and step, too.
have you kept all the ICE - its not ground breaking loud but has good bass and treble.
the sports exhaust was by twisted and just makes you want to drop a gear and go Whistle

i miss my old truck Sad
