  1. No actually experience with the plastic dip on my defender but I’d be leaning towards a vinyl wrap.
  2. I don’t see any back up lights go it?? Maybe pictures were from before install? welcome to the group
  3. Just doing a night collection for the 2022 maple season. Been an odd start but things are getting better.
  4. Not much comes from Canada these days maybe a shelf shortage might also open some folks eyes to another problem we have in Canada. Hope you guys get your toys sooner then later.
  5. Can’t wait to see how the door build goes for ya. I’ll be starting the same thing in a few weeks. Been putting it off since last year. My only issue is adding a window that will open. Do you have any plans or thoughts on that???
  6. Very nice post and work. Looks fantastic and factory built. Gonna be sweet upgrade for the white stuff. Can’t wait to see it in action.
  7. If your thinking doors and hard windshield with wipers then cab unit is definitely the way to go. Its insulated and sealed and better noise reduction my 2 cents. My 19 HD10 isn’t factory cab but my next one will be. if your somewhat handy then most the aftermarket stuff is more time the anything. I like to fab and tinker so to me saving a few bucks is always wicked. Also to consider if your financing some times it’s nice to add those things into a payment instead of being out of pocket the cash. Especially at a zero% kinda thing. Talking more full doors and tire/rim upgrades expensive option kind of stuff. plenty of good aftermarket options for the small stuff like audio. Or go this route cost was about 500 Canadian total plus 8-10 hours work kinda thing. 4 kicker marine speakers plus head unit were the real cost. Pods were cheap to build. No way I was spending 1000 bucks for the cam am set up plus I didn’t have the liner. Some real nice set ups aftermarket but they don’t come cheap.
  8. My 2019 defender has also made the sound from the pressure relief valve when my tank gets hot and pressurized. It’s done it from day one so I’m not to concerned. Usually only notice it on really hot summer rides when I pit stop or park the buggy. I just pop the gas cap to shut it up lol. I’m in Canada so I’m far from desert like conditions. I’ve always just thought it’s working if I hear the noise lol. Can’t hear it when it’s running maybe cause it’s pulling fuel or just so quiet. I have never had any fuel smell or running/starting issues. The start of this post with three fuel pumps in a row sounds suspect on dealers part.
  9. Ya I chose to mount my rear winch inside trailer hitch. Seems pretty strong the little i e used it. I think it looks wicked in the bumper but for pulling Polaris and Honda’s around I’ll stick with mounting to something that can’t break off. Plus this way I can also take it off to use on anything with a hitch and 12v Lol
  10. I’d run a second aux fuse bar for additions or mods requiring power like that. Much safer way to go plus no cutting or splicing with factory harnesses. I try and keep everything isolated when I can. Hard to really say without knowing what group of wires your talking about. If your trying to find ignition power the 12v lighter socket is a good place but not sure about using it with a 52” bar. If that wire kit is heavy enough for that lights bar then the factory power bar should have no issues with it smoking.
  11. Should be able to pull it from the ownership
  12. Lights were a very must for me. Oh those yellow lights had to get upgraded. I actually chuckled to myself the first time I turned them on at night. Darn you brp. Kolpin gun holders were a very cheap and easy mod. Doors for winter use. rear winch and wired remotes were also a must for what I needed this thing for. bumpers help for protection but the rest in my case is just as one guy on here calls his rig money well wasted.
  13. I wouldn’t recommend using as a tie down for trailering your rig especially with the factory plastic hinges. Have a look at them and I think you’ll agree. Tire nets is the way to go all day long plus not putting load against suspension. Regular straps well maybe not the fastest or cleanest definitely a better option in my opinion.
  14. I also got the can and doors added tape to latch posts plus weather stripping to the parts that were bare around the door. No noise at all. Will be building uppers for them real soon.
  15. Glad the second dealership was able to get it fixed and extend your warranty. Guess you know where to take it next time.
