Fairly simple tbh.

Jake:
Well, i've finally got bored of a wet seat and dripped on arm followed by a cup holder full of water.
Today, i changed the roof for one that doesn't leak   :dance:
Dodging the weather i removed the headlining, trim and sun visors.
I have now found out exactly where the water was coming into the boot from



I'll be doing the cappings when i change the side panels (just after Christmas i hope)
Off with the roof

And on with one without a sunroof and alpine windows



As you can see the weather was perfect for roof swapping  :doh:
I just have the headlining to re-fit in the morning and then it will start to dry out at last!!
 :D

This weekend i have fitted unbreakable heated mirrors to my Defender.
Not totally LR looking but nice and strong with the abilty to de-mist in the morning  :mrgreen:

To wire them up i needed to fit some of my Carling switches i had in the Discovery.
This mean't cutting some more holes in the Mud console.
Due to the amount of space the switches need i had to relocate the radio down to the bottom.
So, two new holes later it looks like this



I wired up the mirrors to a on-off switch using a relay.
Now, just to obtain a heated screen

 :D
