It has been back to Landrover for a couple of days to try and fix a bit of transmission slap. Not been successful, so going back again in due course. I wouldn't mind but its only done 6000m.
Any ideas where I can source the missing kit if I want to make it look respectable?
Many thanks,
Paul Naked G4 110, 2003 & 2006
The main supplier for the stuff attached to the cars was Mantec - www.mantec.co.uk but there were some others involved, including direct from Warn for the lighting and winch + mounting hardware (i think)
Pyranha supplied the Kayaks....More than that I can't remember!
Over the next week or so, i'm hoping to add a proper suppliers list to the Links page, with (in time) a list of what each supplied to which event.
Mark (Erasmus) and Alan (aedwar57) are particularly good sources of info though so I'm sure they will chip in with better info!

AFAIK Safety Devices have stopped supplying the racks whilst they "consolidate" the business, not sure if this means they will start up again or not though so your only chance at the moment would be either Universal or eBay.The lights are Warn SDB-160's but they're not cheap at around £300 a pair new. Again they come up on eBay both as new sets or as ex-G4 sets. The new ones will have the wrong brackets on them, the ex-G4 ones may have the correct brackets depending on what car they came off, the RR ones were different from the D2 ones, not sure about the 110's though. The wiring connectors were fitted by LR as was the loom used to connect them to the controller.The winch is either a Warn XD9000i or a 9.5ti depending on which year the car was used on. Not sure where the bumper mount on the 110 came from, may well be LR themselves.As Darren says the snorkel, underbody protection and interior racks are all supplied by Mantec. These do come up eBay occasionally so worth keeping an eye out for, failing that a trip to Mantec in Nuneaton may be in order.I'm not sure what the towing hitch on the 110's was, as Darren says the D2's had NAS spec hitches but the 110 will be different
That little lot should get you started, once you've got that lot the obsession will have kicked in and you'll be on eBay all hours the day buying G4 related stuff, or is that just me:w00t: Mark S.Founding committee member======================G4 Discovery II V8iES2003 Event - South African Film vehicleFleet number G4SAF07/Vehicle Number 87Photo Gallery
welcome to the forum and club, as can be expected as the club evolves we will be better placed to be able to source the missing kit, it is out there but at a price, so collectively we will try and source items. in the mean time it is e-bay or direct to the oem

Know it is for 2006, but most suppliers will be the same I expect.
