Haha just the usual watching eBay like a hawk. They pop up all the time no need to pay £580 for an aftermarket one 😱 or £2k from Land Rover

A quick update:
Jobs completed so far:
The fatigued Start stop button was swapped out with a oem replacement I put some insulation tape around the surround and used a trim remover. Worked out nice!

Next was the rotary gear surround which had strangely bubbled found a new never been fitted spare on eBay for £30 and followed a YouTube vid to replace

Lastly did a trial fit of the wheels and mud guards. Offset looks great and the original wheel nuts fit perfect !!

Ive also removed the wing and bumper, stripped them down for donor ones received last week, paint comes next and then I get to enjoy it.

Cheeky Gits at auction have stolen the tow bar, as well as the main bracket, spare wheel and jack. a very tough lesson to learn, i imagine them laughing in the pub with all my lost pennies! so heres the new one:

I sourced an M16 10.9 tensile 'Geomet' coated Bolt with a Stover Nut to stop vibrating loose.
90mm length....

Available on Ebay:

(Nut is available as an selection/option)
