🚙 Built for the Land Rover Defender 110

The Defender 110 is the go-to vehicle for adventurers, expedition teams, and hardcore off-roaders. But space inside is always a challenge — especially when you’re kitting it out for life on the move.

Our rear elevating roof is the perfect solution, lifting the roof at the back to provide standing height where it’s needed for cooking, gear access, or sleeping. It’s lightweight, low-profile when closed, and designed to handle the toughest terrains and harshest weather conditions.

Unlike many camper conversions, this roof is tailored to preserve your Defender’s off-road capabilities while giving you more liveable space.

🔧 What’s Included?

Every rear elevating roof conversion for the Defender 110 includes:

• Precision-moulded fibreglass rear pop-top roof shell

• Weatherproof, breathable canvas sides

• Flush-mount LED interior lighting

• Reinforced fitting kit

• Structural steel roof frame

• All necessary seals, hinges & fixings

• Professional fitting at our workshop or via approved UK installer

• 5-Year Warranty for peace of mind

🔧 Also available as a supply-only kit (£1,950 inc VAT) for experienced self-installers or trade professionals.
