Great video been waiting for months for another episode 👍🏼 really appreciate how much time it must have took to wire up the lights on that board great comparison, really like watching wheeler dealers for landys 👍🏼
Hi Reece, Happy to hear you enjoyed it - unfortunately real work got in the way, so apologies for the delay! Yes, that board did take a while to wire up, but I thought it was useful to see the difference in brightness side-by-side. Wheeler Dealers has definitely been an inspiration, Edd China is definitely someone I try to emulate :)
Awesome videos, I’m to young to drive but a truck that i would love to have is a Land Rover just like yours. I would also love to upgrade/mod/restore one!
Just about to do this myself and coincidentally also bought from Bolt on Bits...... Just got to find out where the old flasher relay is (I hope its not behind the instrument binnacle.....but I think it is!
Cheers for the video helped out. I’ve done the same on mine and all good so far apart from the rear light / brake light they come on but are not getting brighter when pressing the brake pedal anyone got any idear on why this is happening
Where do you get the parts starting at 7:27? You said you had an extra, but my defender doesn't have those on the original wiring.My local autoparts store doesn't have it either. Thanks!
Hi Rob, Are you talking about the connectors? I had to replace the connectors that were already on the wiring loom because they were the old Land Rover ones and wouldn't fit the connectors on the new lights. Fortunately Bolt on Bits provided them with the kit, but you can find connectors like that on eBay, search for ampseal or superseal connectors..
A paint job would not go a miss, because now slapping on these new things is like putting lipstick on a sheep. None the less it is a Defender. Will love them for ever or until the bank account is empty
Thanks Kev. Switching polarity pins was great advice. Took a while to source a fault on the headlight switch but got there in the end
You went to a lot of time and effort to show other's how to do this. Well done and thank you..
No problem! Thanks for the feedback, hope you're liking the rest of my videos :)
Excellent stuff....thank you.
That's exactly what I need to do, and I have no idea, what can go wrong 😅 thanks for the share
Won me over on the compare and contrast
love the sweater

Mine was behind the fuse panel cover along with the fuses..

@@KevsDefenderProject Thanks!
Hi Kev, great videos. I was wondering what is the front grill you are using? I have the same but have no idea where it is from. Cheers. Peter
If I remember correctly, it was from a place called Bolt on Bits in Gomersal, Yorkshire. Hope that helps!
@@KevsDefenderProject thank you Sir.

Good point - I did a paint and bodywork course recently so I'm one step closer!
Hi Kev it’s Dan I’m just wondering when you are going to upload your video of the Land Rover show will it be tomorrow
I've got a rough edit together, just a few finishing touches and it'll be up here!
Kev's Defender Project ok great :D
Hi why are the indicators at the top they should be at the bottom
I obviously wasn't paying attention when I took it apart :)
Kev's Defender Project sounds good I was starting to wonder if the kit forced you to change the location! Thanks for clarifying
