They're certainly Morris replica ones, whether off a Moggy or not I don't know. Need something with side lights as the head lights I got don't have any. The only concern I have is how well hidden the indicators are. Need to put some decent repeaters down on the end of the front wings.
Made some good progress this week. Finally plucked up the courage to put the relief cuts into the rear end to make the convertible kit fit the Mk2 - had to make a few more than appear to have been needed in the hardtop.
I promised you some stupid questions so here's another one. I bought a pair of the Land Rover wiper extenders that Chris recommends but how do I fit the bloody things? Do I need to buy Land Rover wiper arms as well?
Thanks Chris, my attempts at a single wiper conversion didn't work. Even tried investing in a pantographic wiper arm but it didn't clear enough of the screen.
Well that was fun. Squoosed adhesive all over the back end, by the time I got it in position the bloody stuff had gone solid so then spent the next two hours chipping and grinding it back off to try again tomorrow and do it bit by bit
Quick question guys, for those who have made the convertible. Have you put filler across between the Frankenstein bolts to raise the body work up to the same height as the kit or left the original panel there and worked around it?
