Cal:
Bit of a random question for you - do 90s have hinges on the windscreens in the same way a series landy would?

I know they look like they do, but do they actually still fold over?

Just planning in advance for which will fit in our garage better - either a series 3 or a defender...! It looks like if I go oversized and lifted route on either I've got to have a rag top with the windscreen down!

Guy90:
Some do. Some don't.

My 1992 ex MOD 90 did. Neither my 1992 110 or my 1997 90 did.

The simple answer is that if the bits on the front of the windscreen that attach it to the bulkhead look like hinges, they are.  The later vehicles have a solid bracket on each side, whereas the earlier types tend to have hinges and fold down.

In either case, you can easily fit the hinged type if you need your screen to fold.

Cal:
Thanks guys - long story, but am looking at getting 90, but to get it to fit in my garage will need to be a rag top with a fold down windscreen - especially if I want big tyres and a lift!

Where do the seat belts anchor if you've got a rag top?

Hi, i fitted a rag top to my 84 90 and found the best way was to fit harnesses, much safer and better for keeping you in your seat when off roading :)
