Does an SVX grille fit a Tdi do you know?
Here's a few photos of my deefer on a recent trip to the Cape:

And here's the setup - who needs a roof top tent? Or any tent! This setup served us brilliantly living out of the defender for over a month. For reference, Clark Rubber make a foam mattress that fits a 110 CSW perfectly :cool:

I think I passed cal415 at a creek crossing somewhere near Twin Falls on the Tele track one morning. Hard to miss a big 130 like that!
does the mattress fit even with rear seats>
No, it wouldn't fit with the rear seats in. The total clearance with seats in is only ~190cm from memory, that's not much for person + pillow. With the seats out it's ~220cm, plenty of room. That and fitting the fridge in meant that the seats had to come out… Luckily it's a 10min job ;)
Yes an SVX grill will fit, however it is different at the sides of it than standard grills due to being cut out for the extended headlight surrounds.
If using standard Defender headlight surrounds you would need to fill in the gaps.
Here is a photo of my grill from a limited edition (basically the same as the SVX grill).
Well Dervish, that was a bit ballsy, going through Logan Creek with the vents open!!!
Haha i remember that, i was coming up the crossing at Canal creek you were going down, i would have stopped for a chat but we were in a hurry that morning headed down to fruitbat falls for a quick visit, then back to elliot to meet up with some people. You should have flagged me down, we were setup camp at Sam creek at that stage, spent a few nights there before heading north to punsand bay, i think we may have passed you somewhere else too but cant remember where.
Its funny, i ran into a few defender drivers, but the ones i spoke to(besides one forum user i met down towards brisbane) didnt seem that interested in chatting to another LR owner, one guy in a blue 130 at Wajul Wajul completely snobbed me, we pulled up next to him and i was checking out his car, he jumped in and took off hahah... maybe i looked like some scary wolf creek type.... i really should have taken a razor!!
