Defender Bonnet Spare Wheel Carrier

Hi All, just a bit of info about Defender Bonnet Spare Wheel Carriers. These come up quite regularly in this group so I thought I'd take the liberty of mentioning the kit I've now found. It's doesn't get a mention in the parts books, but is a Genuine Parts Kit that contains everything (bar the tools!) for carrying a spare wheel on the bonnet of pre-Td5 Defenders - no mention of it's not fitting Td5 bonnets.

The kit inlcudes: All the bits of the carrier itself A new "rigid" bonnet prop. All the fixings, including rivets. A list of the tools required. Very comprehensive instrcutions.

Part No. STC7633 £134.54 inc VAT

Just thought someone may be ineterested!

Would it fit a Series bonnet?

Basically - yes, I think so, but it would not be a straight forward job, and one or two bits like the strengtheners would probably be reduandant.

I had a spare (235/85) on the bonnet of my 90 for about 30K miles/two years, including some pretty boneshaking off-roading. It was bodge-mounted on a modified rear door mount, I think. Definitely no caution there. Lasted fine.
