sorry dear I haven't, I am hoping to make a start soon, but it looking like it could be my xmas shut down. A mate of mine has offered to help me out, while my dad is sorting out his kitchen project. Going to need some brake fluid before I start. Also spray down those rear bleeder nips on the rears, to prevent any tears. Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

well not an update on the brakes and suspension project I have. ( that's going to be the big one I promise
My mate's car engine bit the dust on his Y plate seat sadly, so he decided to do buy something sweet. ( lexus V6 ) So he is breaking his seat, so I asked if I can have his radio off him. He said yeah I will sort that out for you. He is going through a rough time, so I have been giving him my ear and giving him the jobs to do with me and my dad, to take his mind off things. So he gave me the unit for nothing. Anyway the thing I had was an old knackered tape deck thing from the 90s, didn't even power up at all. Retro I know but why the hell fit that if its  ??
 Click image to enlarge so out came that thing a long with the cage, and the replacement unit ready to go in. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge and boom we have a working unit! Click image to enlarge The speakers are about finished sadly, the driver side is well dead, took that out to see if I could do anything with it, but its long gone. so I have a defender with one working speaker, The speaker sounds very 90s I did try a petshop boys cd in and put you are all ways on my mind, and it made it even more retro  But it will do for the min. At least I can have some company in my daily now for a change. I am toying with putting up in the roof though. As it doesn't fit well. ( another project down the line) Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

Nice one
I didn't have anything in Alan at first but it is nice to have a bit of noise other than the engine .. I just got some second hand speakers with the rear mounting things and another couple mounted on the bulkhead out of sight behind the front outer seats.. Sounds ok though... 1993 200Tdi Defender 90 |

Since it was my birthday on Friday, Procta decided to buy procta a swing way with alloy wheel adapters. I think its a ManTec one. looking at the photo, also a little item of the rear interior too. Working on what speakers to have, as Halfords don't seem to do much in the 13cm size that is installed. Ebay do mind. Having a radio with one working speaker is fun I tell ya
