Once you have door struts on your Defender you will wonder how you have lived without them all this time. You can relax knowing that those very expensive doors won't get pulled out of your hands by the wind or hit your legs as you are getting in. It pushes and holds the door open for you when opening the door. It also slows the door opening if the wind catches the door or if your Defender is parked on an up slope. This makes it much less likely that the door will be pulled out of your hand. You no longer have to worry about which direction to face your Defender when opening the doors on a windy day. Set it where you need to keep the door within reach of the kids. With the door closed, the strut and brackets are well clear of your head and do not block your view out of the window.

All door brackets have four holes to mount the ball stud. This allows you to choose how far the door opens from wide open to narrow for tight spaces. In some cases the door limiting cable will have to be removed to use the widest door settings.

Steel brackets are powder coated to match the Defender. The struts are heavy duty with steel coupler ends to connect to the ball studs. The mounting bolts are black coated stainless steel. The kit blends in as if it came with your Defender from the factory.

Door brackets mount using existing holes and bolts in the upper door.

The pillar bracket mounts using one existing rivet nut in the roll cage pillar and requires one hole to be drilled to install an additional rivet nut. The rivet nut tool is available at the link below if needed. The rivet nut is the same one used to install other accessories including some from Trail Icon.
