Defender parts compatibility, Which Parts Fit?

#1 Post by ryancr500 » Sun Apr 28, 2019 10:15 pm

I recently purchased a 1991 defender 110 project vehicle. It's missing some electrical parts from the dashboard. I'm wondering if any other Land Rover parts would be compatible, from a different model or year. Parts for the defenders seem to be hard to come by. I'm mainly looking for gauge cluster, but I'm also missing the complete key barrel and wiring that plugs into it. Any help would be greatly appreciated

It depends. Most of the dash stuff is the same from 84 to 2001. Defender parts are super easy to find and are usually very cheap. You just need to download a a parts catalogue and look up the part numbers or use an online catalogue.

For the gauge cluster, a Raptor binnacle is a better choice than a Land Rover one if you are buying new and aftermarket gauges are better and cheaper than original.

I have an ignition switch for a disco 1 you can have. I have a key for it as well.
