I will sort out the LED rear lights in the near future although there is no part number to quote from in the catalogue to order against, but will probably get a the after market ones.
    congrates on the find, amazing what dealers can do if they try

    It is best practice to engage the CDL (Centre Diff Lock) whenever you go offroad. Engaging the CDL on a landy is like engaging 4x4 in a part-time 4x4 vehicle.

    If you do lots of offroading without the CDL engaged you will likely wear out the centre diff prematurely and/or break it.

    Without the CDL engaged you only have a 1 wheel drive offroad in a non-etc landie. The ETC can compensate somewhat, but will be working much harder than usual.


    Btw - glad you are happy.
    You mentioned cycling - what bikes do you have?

    My wife's TD5 90 is Boticelli red, I think the spellings right. Very similar couler. We find it fairly easy to keep clean, not like my black thing.

    2 inch lift, +2inch Terra Firma big bore shocks, relocation cones front and rear, spring retainers (front) sway bars gone front and rear, ARB air compressor. The front bar is from RovaCraft, 9000lb winch, Duel batterys, power outlets in rear for fridge ect. RovaCraft under vehicle protection, sports seats, bought from Repco, can't remember the make, 8x16 performance alloys, Toyo muds, switchable T.C. Rear air locker is coming in July, drive shaft upgrade then also. Engine egr valve gone, centre muffler gone, turbo boost up to 1.3 bar. ECU flash when I can con the wife. Up dated sound system. All the bling is womans work. As I said your ninety will make you a poor man. This one is to keep her happy as I play with 110. She's loved 90's for ever. We had an old 88 series soft top when we first got married so, what can you do?
