I've noticed that nearly all of these doors have been installed on soft tops, is that just because you can take the tops off for summer mode, it'll fit my hardtop CSW without any issue right? 1993 200 Tdi 90 CSW

I've got them on my hard top, there the same size, height wise etc. . I just like the fact that they are so basic and easy to work with. No door cards hiding rot, rust etc. It's a one door fits all, by Land Rover. SP in this case!.

As I`m considering the same 2 piece sp4x4 doors to my 90Td5CSW I`m considering the Iron Goat door cards. Has anyone tried those? They seems of good quality and it will give more elbow room Thumbs Up -99 Td5 90 CSW

what is it like only having half the window able to open? that is my biggest concern.

I remember my dad's series 1 you could push the window and slide it open. Are these the same? 2014 - current ..... 2003 defender td5 90 (my car)

Maybe we can get some sort of group buy going to save a few quid?

Anyone else thinking of buying these doors? 1993 200 Tdi 90 CSW

I don't have air conditioning, and if I leave the dogs in the car for any reason I crack the windows and open the front flaps. If the dogs could slide them or a thief if they were cracked they would be no good to me. they need to be able to be locked shut or in position 2014 - current ..... 2003 defender td5 90 (my car)

If you leave dogs in the car its best to get rear window guards, you can leave the windows fully open and you don't need to worry



Also if you leave a normal window cracked open the dog or thief could easily paw it down

no rear windows on mine, it's a hardtop. At the minute I just crack them as I have wind reflectors it's not so obvious 2014 - current ..... 2003 defender td5 90 (my car)

Hello together,
i‘m just about to fit in some 110 frontdoors in my defender.
These are one piece doors with liftup handles and i need some explosive drawings to assamble them.
Does anyone know if the haynes manual is detailed enough or do i need the original Landrover manual?

Regards from Switzerland

Dirk
