This conversion kit gives you the opportunity to convert or upgrade a Defender 90 into a stylish soft top with a heavy-duty bar set and traditional canvas hood.
The kit includes a full bar set and drain channels with all the required hardware for fitting as well as a premium quality canvas hood.
The Hood
Fits from the windscreen to the rear of the vehicle on all short wheelbase 90” Defenders
Exmoor Trim retain all the original drawings for these hoods dating back to the first Defender soft top production, enabling us to still manufacture the correct specification hood.
Today we still follow the same methods of manufacture and ensure that the hoods are correct to the OEM fitted parts of that era.
The hoods come in a choice of colours, Sand, Khaki and Black. Rear windows are fitted as standard, side windows are optional (choose the WSW option if you would like side windows).
Whichever version you choose we make sure that the same rollup straps are used which enable you to roll up the sides and the rear panels when required, a truly great way to enjoy a Land Rover.
The Bar Set
Manufactured in the UK by our partners Purely Metals, this high-quality bar set includes all the hardware required to fit it your vehicle.
The hoops are fabricated from 50mm steel tube, and the entire frame is finished with durable, hardwearing satin powder coat.
Once the roof, rear door and side panels of your vehicle have been removed, installation of the bars is a straightforward DIY job. We have a detailed fitting video to guide you through the process.
The bar set includes
Front and rear hoops
Interim hoop and connecting tie bars
Over door drain channels
Side of door drain channels
TD5 Screen rail (this is compatible with all Defender’s from 1983 onwards)
Fitting kit with all the Rope hooks, nuts, bolts, washers, and rivets needed for assembly.
Seat Belts
Both the front and rear hoops of the bar set have seatbelt mounts built in. This means you have the upper belt mount and inertia real mounts for both the front and load area seats. The load area seat belts mounts are only suitable for forward facing seats such as the Exmoor Time Loc and Fold or the Land Rover Tumble Down Seat.
Please Note:
- If you are converting a 90 Station Wagon or hard top, you will need to replace the rear door. The hood and bar set will work with either a swing-away half door or a drop-down tail gate.
- The kit includes a TD5 screen rail and TD5 specification hood. If you have an older vehicle with a pre-2000 screen rail, you will need to swap it for the one included in the kit.
