Range Rover Blues:
Scuttles are different depending on model year, exposed/concealed hinge.

RRB are they different in any other way

Range Rover Blues:
I can't say if the 2-door aans 4-door are the same.

Mid 80s cars had the visible hinge bonnet, later 80s cars had concealed bonnet hinges but exposed door hinges, the scuttle is differnet I because of the bonnet hinges.

Then came the concealed hinge doors, introduced for the US market along with the 14CU engine management (and the 3.9 soon after) and closer door gaps.  The doors are longer so the wings and scuttle are shorter, the A post is very different.

So you need one of a similar vintage, if your car is concealed hinge then any scuttle fomr 1989 onward will fit, even the soft-dash I think.

hi RRB
its and old C reg
as im not into RRC's really im unsure wot im doing tbh?

Simon

Range Rover Blues:
Well it will be exposed hinge doors then but I'm not sue about the bonnet, I think it's concealed hinge, it won't fold flat onto the screen,n it has torsion bars to make it lighter and of course you can't see the hinge when it's closed.

You need one from 1988 or earlier.
