27/06/2022 - Aftermarket Woes

The door cards on the 90 have been tired since we picked it up back in 2016. I guess it’s one of those things that’s never a priority. But that being said when they’re basically hanging off you need to rectify the issue.

Typical failings of original door cards is when previous owners who don’t use the correct tools to remove the door card snap the plastic fixings which are part of the door card off leaving unsecured parts of the door card.

It’s worth mentioning the replacements are not OEM and they’ve been sat in ready to be installed since February. General observation of the door cards are they’re flimsy, don’t have the foam outer skin which I guess acts as sound deadening. The holes aren’t quite in the right places and it needs modification to fit the profile of the door… expected but annoying.

Parts list for the job.

ABS Plastic Door Card - RH Black with electric windows (TR232AEW)

ABS Plastic Door Card - LH Black with electric windows (TR233AEW)

Def Door Card Fixing Kit (DA4649)

Foam Spacer (MWC3137)

Door Lock Button Kit (DA2499)

I’m not super happy with the fit and need to revisit with more patience. Fitting the door card alone is achievable but if you have a spare set of hands it’s suggest take advantage of them.

Getting in the way & being a nuisance when visiting friends like @williams_classics allows a chance to absorb the workings & snap that which captures my eye #LandRover #L663 #Defender2023 #Defender90 #landroverdefender #Serieslandrover #RangeRover #RangeRoverClassic #landroverphotoalbum #inkyenston #Oldrovers #WilliamsClassics (at Williams Classics) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnB3vEGNs5E/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Repost @frank_the_defender with @make_repost ・・・ As some of you may or may not know, I’ve got my beloved Frank up for sale… I’ve built him up to exactly how I’ve always wanted a Defender to be, but I’ve got a sickness where I need to start a new Defender build, I can’t explain it ahaha Anyway, if you’re interested, send me a dm and I’ll send you the listing if you haven’t seen it already. Can also organise transport interstate to make sure he gets to the right home! #4x4#defender110#defender90#landy#landroverdefender#landrover#dieseltrucks#defender#australia#defenderpuma#defenderpickup#defenders#landroverlove#defender130#stance#4wd247rigs#4wd247fridays https://www.instagram.com/p/CejtzjvP8N9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

16/07/2022 - The Wedding

The 110 doesn’t make an appearance in this post unfortunately, but a series 1 will be the star of the show. The 90 gracefully did its job in delivering the bridesmaids to the church, but late as the driver (Amy) decided to go the wrong way as well as the bride in another vehicle (Range Rover) a great way to cause the suspense or turning up fashionably late.

I shan’t go into detail regarding the wedding but what an awesome day it was.

Is the owner of this lush SVX Defender 90 viewing? I spotted it whilst at Red Wharf Bay with @busheditor & @kingsleyholgatefoundation #landrover #SVX #SVRDefender #Defender90 #landroverdefender #landroverphotoalbum #inkyenston #RedWharfBay #kingsleyholgate (at Red Wharf Bay) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch4hjYvtCFf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
