This is my new project, I want to take it to the war and peace show this year and then strip it for a rebuild. The canvas roof has a few holes in it so the wife fitted the cover on it. Regards Sean

Looks pretty good Sean. 8-)

I bet the canopy mod makes a hell of a noise on the move and must ruin the MPG. :lol:

I do have another hood but I want to cover the area the Landy is parked in before I fit.
What is the switch for next to the wiper control and above the lighting switch, has a safety clamp on it?

It's the Infra Red switch for the headlamps.

Used with Infra Red covers on the headlamps and Night Vision Goggles.

Cheers RT1, so there must be a 12 volt feed to the switch but where does the switched power go to, near the headlights? just curious
