Defender 110 Adventure Side Guards
Hi

Can anyone help me source these side guards?

I’m referring to the aluminum type guards below the sills on the above example as I can’t find them anywhere. [img][/img]

They were made by Mantec for Land Rover I believe, although Mantec went bust.

They're pretty much just for show rather than actually offering much in the way of protection

Thanks guys. Why do you say they’re mainly for show as they looked quite solid to me? I certainly liked the bling and assumed they’d protect the sills/act as sliders?

What would they protect? They fit behind the standard decorative sills. And being angled if you got hung up on something they'd skid off and drop the side panels/doors onto what ever you were hung up on, traditional rock/tree sliders would offer far more protection.
The adventure trims would just act as mud, gravel and even rock traps.

They do look cool though.

If you find them, let me know. I've been trying to buy them myself.
Thank you. Bergos
