    All great upgrades, I’d say my favourite upgrade ls are
    Twisted P600 Remap
    Alive comfort suspension
    ORE steering guard, cranked DRL bumper, seat box guards and light bar.
    I have the same LEDs all round as you they really are good.
    Next on the ever growing list is
    Headlights
    Rear work lights
    Spare wheel carrier
    It never ends does it !
    Nice episode keep them coming

    I haven’t even got my defender yet and I’ve started modifying it, white Wolf wheels and LED headlights are being fitted by the garage I’m buying it from and I have a new steering wheel with quick release boss ready for when I get it. Also bought the MUD seat rails for a bit of extra room in the cab.

    Great summary video. I have done three of your six and will do the ORE bumper when mine really starts to delaminate. For what it is worth, I think you have got the balance right about your truck being stunning but not chavvy (so agree with that comment). I still procrastinate on the remap - always worry that the handling will become unbalanced

    • @thedoctorsgarage
      @thedoctorsgarage  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Alex appreciate it-just go for a stage 1 remap to start with - makes a huge difference

    • @markriley2733
      @markriley2733 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Stage one is a game changer it really makes massive change that’s well within a standard defenders tolerances, Next levels you need to think about better brakes and suspension to keep things safe and under control in my opinion.

    I like your tire choice, even though the side with the white raised letters should have been placed on the inside. The truck looks great!

      Thansk Jerry! I originally liked the white outside but I’m tending to agree with you now they have aged a bit

    nice, id say my top 5 aren't disimilar, iv got a winch bumper with drl and rear nas step with removable tow reciever from wildbear both awesome pieces, second would be the stage 2 map from empire tuning!!!, third probably my rear reverse gear camera used mostly to reverse back up narrow overgrown byways lol.. fourth would have to be cruise control yup i said cruise control on my td5 90 from audiofile-incar, fith is my most expensive conversion to a dormobile pop roof and 270' awning with leisure battery and 240v hook up. from dormobile.
    youve insired me to upgrade those interior door cards looks awesome and that would also prompt me in to upgrading the sound system to fill the tweeter space haha. and my front right wheel arch is cracked from a disagreement with a tree which has pealed of the silver paint so considering a black arch respray too.

    • @thedoctorsgarage
      @thedoctorsgarage  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes the door cards are great - more suited to a defender I think- also
      I need to fill that speaker hole too!
