Hi all

I've been fighting rust in the door frames on my 1998 Defender 130 for the last 10 years of ownership. Copious amounts of lanolin over the years has slowed the rust spread down, but it's time to do something about it.

So, finding good second hand doors at the wreckers is proving fruitless. The alternative is here (with the bonus of being galvanised)

Def 110 Right Hand 2nd Row Galvanised Push Button Door (Galv Steel Skin) 1-2 WEEK LEADTIME (https://www.sp-4x4.com/DEFENDER_PUSH_BUTTON_FRONT_DOOR_GALVANISED_p/bfl710020-g.htm)


Has anyone ordered from these guys? I suspect the freight will be the killer due to there size. I've just send them a message to see if I can get an estimate for freight.

Cheers

Hi, I have a pair I fitted to my 300tdi well made and a good fit. They've been on for a couple of years, I would buy from them again.
