    I was speaking to MR automotive last week and they mentioned they have them. One piece units, you have to fit your own glass. I have a kit purchased from UK some time ago, that is in pieces that you assemble. But now dollar is worthless UK kits are pricey.

    Put a long range tank in mine, 80 channel UHF and finished the interior. Just have to get a new stepper motor to get it to run right, then sort out the cooling system. Almost ready to start taking it further than the servo and back on its test runs now.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    Bought another 2 door off Neale (Corgi Carrier) on the forum for $750. Pretty much rust free but panel and paint are in a sorry state and it doesn't run either

    I also have a 86 Rangie that needs a fuel pump gasket (already have a fuel pump), get that running and move it on. I bought it for the ARB step and bullbar as I wanted them for my 2 door, the Rangie will be posted it up for sale when I get it sorted out

    Plenty to do not enough time

    Was dissatisfied with my stock rrc centre console and have replaced it with a s/h department of the interior version from a forum member.
    Was an absolute bastard to fit, took nearly 2 days to get it perfect, but now I'm extremely satisfied with the results.
    Then turned my hand to the auxiliary battery setup which I wasn't happy with. Ripped out the battery box, recabled to the isolator and changed the accessory plugs in the back. Found some rust in the front floor and gave it a cleanup then killrust epoxy enamel because it's all I have at the moment- Brunswick Green looks half OK and will be hidden by floor mats anyway.
    I just keep finding stuff that needs attention and never enough time to fix it all...
    Window motors are next unless something else gets in the way

    So winched it into the shed.

    Removed all the now surplus abs gear under the passenger seat to get a mates going again. Refitting whole non abs system from a discovery with new defender calipers.

    Next job is to swap rear housing for the 30 spline conversion new ball joint whilst it is out
