This is not cheap for the L663; £ 3750,- ex. vat. Everything they remove comes with the car, so conversion back is possible.
My 90 will be done next week. I only have a picture from 110, very nice bulkhead in style of rear door.

That’s cool you get all the bits back to convert. That would be what a lot of Uk owners would do and avoid the ridiculous annual tax rate plus get 5/7 seats back in it. 1951 80" S1 2.0

Thats a nicer bulk head than the LR one. A bit of thought gone into it and decent vision instead of the small meshed gap you get as standard.

Will you be doing anything with the stepped floor in your 90 conversion?

Indeed; squares panels are not working well with the 90 imho.


Looking at the video J77 posted on the Blue 90... no square panels on that one - and looks good...

So do the square panels appear when you spec the Packs with a roof rack / box / ladder on 90?

The squares are a £155 option. It’s recommended that you have them if fitting the box or ladder just to protect the glass. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Is that JLR recommending it?

How does the square protect either? The lunchbox is fixed, and the ladder is not mounted directly in front?

Trying to find photos of the gear carrier and ladder on a 90 is a bit of a challenge...

Ladder (bizarrely this is all I can find!)

Not a lot of light going to get in the back with that combo. Confused

Is there’ a website?

What was cost?

Could you get a flat floor? Cover so under floor storage ?

Thanks

It’s more for the ladder. But they aren’t required for the actual fitting.

With respect to the square and the ladder I suppose it would help protect the glass from being broken by a steel toe capped boot over enthusiastically placed too deeply on one of the rungs.........
I haven’t specced up any 90’s on the configurator but is it possible to spec the optional black signature square on a 90 like you can on the 110? Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

That looks smarter than the JLR version. Thumbs Up

Does it have clear glass on one rear side but boarded on the other?

Yes, suprisingly the conversion will come with ( passenger) one side glass. For pedestrian and cyclist safety it is allowed in the Netherlands to have 1 window at that side no matter the size. By the 110 conversion it has 1 window glass and small blind panel in the door + rear blind panel.
Did not order privacy glass, because I was expecting blind panels. So now I will let it have tinted dark smoke together with rear window.
Not sure what to do with the lowered floor by now. No Mud flaps for my 90.!
