Thread: Replacing rear door card - ally fold down table

Let's try again

Door card


Table

I have looked at attaching the Front Runner rear door table, which is available from Opposite Lock stores and The Expedition Centre, to the rear door of mine, but haven't done it yet.

Drop Down Table - Front Runner

That is very interesting especially for owners of older Defenders.

The back door card is made out of cardboard that deforms because of humidity.

I will be thankful if you could share the CAD design.

Thank you

Will see if I get the CAD file when I pick it up.

My door card is still OK'ish but I decided to add a table some years back.

Just used ply covered with marine carpet. Plastic hinges & tonneau elastic hold downs. Too big and it restricts access to the rear of the vehicle, mine was just big enough to have a brew.....

Careful planning allowed all the mounts to screw through the panel into the door framework.

Several companies will supply the door card but freight from the UK makes it an expensive option http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Defender-9...-/140694957724
