    New for Firewall Td5 Defender

    My firewall is rusted in my Defender, does anybody know if it is possible to buy a new one. I am presently pulling the old firewall out to repair it however I feel it would be easier to replace it with a new one. Please advise if you know or have any advice. Thanks Ben.

    Try a main dealer. In the back of my mind I am sure they aren't as expensive as you may think. They are definetley available, and used to pop up on ebay.co.uk quite often (called bulkheads rather than firewalls tho)

    Explanation of rust to firewall/bulkhead.

    My TD5 started life as a beach vehicle with the Caloundra City Council. It was supplied new with a galvanised chassis however the bulkhead needs replacing due to rust. Thanks. Ben

    LRH had his firewall replaced just before his big trip (under warranty fortunately) & I've seen a few scary Defenders with rust issues come through here too.

    A new one would be available through LR but I'd hate to think what it's worth.
