Hi JK
Sounds a lovely truck, the Bower step is now available from Bowler & Bell Auto https://secure.bellautoservices.co.uk/stor...eps-90110/ Also have you considered Dan @ Duckworth Parts for your mats and soft ABar Matt @ FCX for your leather bits they're bith forum sponsors and are great to deal with. I have a Flatdog bumper with Land Rover Soft A Bar and a Warn Zeon winch and its served my well, only issue I've had is dodgy DRL lights, they also produce steel light bars which may suit your requirements. You should have a read of Zagatos's anti corrosion thread before your car arrives let you know what needs protected. No doubt there will be other members along soon to offer you more advice. All you need to do now is count down the days. Happy motoring John  2014 110 2.2TDCi XS Station wagon

But given I have fallen in love and prefer them to the NAS step, looks like I'll have to add it to my 'Defender's bleeding me dry' list.  Monsieur Le Grenadier

Hello JK.
You have picked a nice colour combo there. I am pleased with the green / black combination and how it acts in the light on my 110. I can't wait to see pictures of it. Mine has bled me dry just buying it let alone shiny bits. Good luck. |

Thanks John, I knew it's a good idea to put a post up, looked at those interior fittings and they'll save me couple quid. Dealer will go nuts, I changed my spec probably 7 times in last two weeks
 Slowly taking away bits and pieces...
Those Bowler rear steps look apart, good to see they are being sold aftermarket - may use what I save on interior bits to pay more for those 
Actually have read Zagato's post, looks very helpful - also read on some other thread that he can actually help with the process, I think I saw someone mentioned he went to see him - unless I misunderstood. On my to do list for sure! Devon-Rover - that utility wagon is making me jealous If only I haven't had such a big family to drive around... Photos to follow definitely. Would be good to see yours how it looks on the sun - to make the waiting 'less' painful  |

Thank you to John for the mention
Great looking truck JK84, love the colour
Zagato (Chris) is based in the Redhill(ish) area and can carry out the whole 'undersealing' process for you (he is without doubt the best in the business and highly recommended) As has been said, BAS (Bell Auto Services) produce the 170+ bhp remap (we are an authorised BAS remapper - based in Headcorn, Kent) We can also supply many (if not all) your interior upgrade requirements if required - www.FCX.co.uk Bowler steps are available here: http://bellautoservices.co.uk/bowler-motorsport-accessories/ If you are local please pop in and we'll make you a coffee and show you our stable of Defenders  |

Cheers Matt, I will take you up on that coffee and will pop down once the truck arrives - some of the leather fittings look very nice, especially for the dashboard and gear levers.
Out of interest, Bowler quotes £1,000 for the upgrade to 170bhp but I can see that BAS one is around £500 for the same remap - I guess they must do some other work to the engine, or is it a premium for the brand. |
