My TD5

Thought it was about time that I added a few photos and explained the changes that have been made so far to my TD5.

Changes;
Removed checker plate on rear door and replaced with an aluminium panel and sprayed to match.
Straight through exhaust.
Full service.
Slickshift.
Aluminium gear knobs.
New radio.
Clutch master and slave change.
KBX front grill.
Wild bear front bumper.
Swivel recovery eyes.
Painted hubs.
Mountney steering wheel.
Stainless fixings.
Tinted rear window.
Front mudflaps.
Repairs to the bulkhead inside.
Waxoyl.
Respray of rear bumper.
Stickers removed.

Think thats everything so far. The car came with the 2 inch lift and many Adrenaline4x4 upgrades. The list will continue to grow however with LEDs next and maybe a respray to the roof. It has changed a fair bit looking back!

Very neat repair that is

My rear door is practically in two! Door frame is that badly bent and door skin seen better days too. I am just going to bite the bullet at some point and buy a later puma door. Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

LED's

New LED's fitted all round. Removed the old style rectangle fog and reversing light for the NAS style ones. Smoked lights from wipac, really happy with how they look. With the changes that I had already made I felt the lights needed to be next as the OEM ones looked dated. I will try and update this story as I make changes. Some bigger changes may be around the corner.

Since my last update, the TD5 is now a soft top. I removed the roof and headed down to Exmoor Trim for them to fit the canvas and sticks along with having a look around the factory.

Here is some photos of the tranformation.
