Just picked up my second roller shutter, in the photo you can see the difference in side rail lengths the old is at the top. I know the new one is from a classic.

fitted winch bumper, steering guard , spotlights. Well chuffed, one thing I noticed nearside headlamp isn't working . Are they on separate fuses? bit strange sidelight and headlight gone together


did have warrior, but crossed over to disco 2.
Thought I could see light at the end of the tunnel, but it was somebody with a torch bringing more work!

Kurt,
This one does look at lot more promising, the side bars are wider and longer so looks better and has the clamps too.
Also has the whole drilled for the roll bar. Just need to get the hardtop off.

Yeah cheers for that, my first job is the carbon wrap the side bars and the cartridge cover. Doing this because I had if for the other one due to the scratches. Think it should look smart and if it works will wrap both scoops in carbon.

I got my truck a little stuck today on a boggy cut up lane, then the "recovery" landrover got stuck... [[FileSC_0115.JPG|none|auto]][[FileSC_0114.JPG|none|auto]][[FileSC_0116.JPG|none|auto]]

We took 2 hours to get 8 trucks through, spent ages digging the centre out to fill in the ruts.
