Good price.
Still need to adjust the positioning.
Well whilst not really today, more as in the past week :)
So inspired, it was onwards and upwards (downwards?) to replace the hoses and thermostat and coolant :cool: Man! 2 days later I emerged from the jungle! :eek: An "interesting" escapade! With out some fore site in purchasing 1 of those remote hose clip thingy pliers Id still be there! And the "secret Hose" needing the rebuilding of the turbo heat shield along the way!
At least the system is in good order with no corrosion anywhere on spigots or outlets :) The downside is that the new thermo runs at 85-6 now instead of the old 82-3 :O No problems bleeding it, just followed Blacknights procedures, all good.
Now I find the swivel ball joints need replacing! :( Ahh JOY!
Cheers Scott
Thanks Warren, looks to be the same as my boss had installed yesterday. Looks the goods. He was just saying he wished he'd got a separate switch installed for it as opposed to being hooked up with his spotties. But he's certainly very happy with the light.Quote:

Watch this thread for another exciting update as this drama of a rideon being rescued by the Defender unfolds!
.
I have the LED bar wired through a separate switch but still connected to high beam. So I can have high beam with or without light bar, but not on its own.Quote:

The unit itself weighs approx. 5-7kgs so is very substantial.
The mounting is solid and once bolted to my bar has absolutely no movement in any direction.
