Thread: Part numbers... anyone?

As far as I can tell these switches are common to the TD5 2002 model on and the new model Defender. They only cost about $20 or so ($10 if you buy them in the UK or have some one who is coming out and can buy them for you) so even if you were to order one and it was wrong you haven't exactly lost much. I'm pretty sure someone on here with the older model would snap it up soon enough if you had to put it up for sale anyway.
They include the lighty up at night stuff built in aswell.

I came across this thread describing the removal of the centre console on the LR4X4site:

Extra Wiring - LR4x4 - The Land Rover Forum

ok guys i have taken onboard what you have said....

and in the next couple of days

i'm going to start 2 threads in a sticky section....

one will be like suggested for those hard to find part numbers, BUT at this point in time i'm going to limit it to only the 07 onwards, as according to many on here other part numbers are more easily obtained.

i'm also going to start another thread on serivce bulletens and recalls again for the 07 onwards.

in the hope that it might be a good resource when people hit the search button when looking or thinking about buying a new defender.


the only thing is i'm going to make it so only i can update this thread...as i dont want it to turn into another general chit chat section...so all i'm asking if you come accross any of the above if you would be so kind as to forward it on to me i will post it in either of the 2 threads if it is relevant

sound fair?

Good move!

I'm preparing a list of known issues for the dealer to check out prior to delivery (and the handing over of the reddies). I will be asking for advice here.

It costs US$14 for 24 hours access to the LR Global Technical Reference (I am a registered user). If someone is interested and has broadband, you can pull an enormous amount of information down in 24 hours. I did that for the P38A.

It's well worthwhile.

Here's some info on Defenders:

be interesting to know if this actually does cover the 07 onwards in the ALL YEARS

Well done Ron

Now there is a man with vision.

but before you get too excited you have $ub$cribe.

AULRO should get a subscription(s) and in turn sell shares to interested members.

If only the Department of AULRO had it

I was thinking that the carrot of access to GTR might encourage a few more Gold subscribers...but I bow to the janitocracy.
