- In this video we show our own design of folding table for the Land Rover Defender L663. This is now made in the UK to our own design.
This is available to purchase on our website www.PowerfulUK.com/catalogsearch/result?q=+LRDI892-Table-Kit
Ordered on Sunday and arrived today (Tuesday) look forward to fitting. First thing I have to say is how well packaged it is and using environmentally friendly packaging - nice work 👍
We were talking about this in the office - it does feel like its a present ! We have now moved to nearly all paper / card packaging ( in house ) now and also trying to use more UK manufacturing - the table and brackets are made within 15 miles of our warehouse ! That and our 50KW solar and company Tesla we are trying to do our bit.
Just installed mine - fitted perfectly. Made of a decent metal gauge, and clearly a quality product.
At last neat way to locate the fire extinguisher and first aid kit and have a work table at the same time.... well-done chaps!
Thanks 👍
I found this video really useful - I received my picnic table from PowerfulUK yesterday, and fitted it within an hour. Really nicely made and fits perfectly. A great addition to my Land Rover Camper.
Delivery arrived yesterday, installed today and it was a quick and easy fit. It is neat and practical. Very happy with it. Also installed the rubber mat and loadspace net. No more bags sliding around the back and I can use the extra loadspace height for carrying more for roadtrips. It has all come together very pleasingly.
Hi 👋 another great 👍 video of this month.
🙏🙏
Very neat and well though out. That shadow foam - excellent idea thank you. 👍🏻
Yes respect to the guy that made that !
This came out so well - well done!
We were pleased with the hinge action !
Hi Simon, great work, will there also be a version in the future with a wooden board for lateral pulling out?!?! this would be awesome :) thx
Possibly! we just purchased a new wood router !
@@L663 wow. how cool .so I will wait for the wood example :) thx
Would be an idea to put holes in the D4 mollie plates to match your table so they could be mounted on the side, as most D4 roof tents open over the side (due to the tail gate), so we can cook under the tent over hang.
That sir is a great idea ... I will pass over to Julian
Hi Simon - just emailed you some fitting feedback, have to say it’s been well thought through and high quality 🤓👍
Just replied to you and I will see if we can optimise based on your comments.
Journey on!
Nice tidy job boys, am considering swapping my jeep one out for your new version. My on,y problem is that the knurled knob at the top on the left, on my car, the thread is buggered so will have to get that sorted first.
Hi Nick - glad it has the non stick seal of approval..let me know if you need a new knurled knob - or I have some spare quick release catches .. pop in next time you camping up this way.
Thanks for the VID... My order has been shipped to Canada! (had to pay duty, grrr)
Yes alas duty seems to be enforced more now ... and you are in the commonwealth.... seems wrong ... I am a fan of free trade
How is the rattle while the vehicle is moving? Love the channel btw! Been watching all your videos. Hoping to get a Defender end of 2024!
the new hoods pins come with springs and a retaining ring.
Very good video, I've watch how it's been fascinating to see how you developed the table..
The rigid straps work really well but getting the 2 lengths correct was harder than you may think - we had to do some maths to get that correct !
Don't forget to include some hooks in the lazer cut outs for a carrier/binbag to hang when cooking 🍳 😉
OK will see what we can tweak - we do have the new hanging knobs featured in the VLOG this week..
Nice job 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Part ordered.... thank you
No Thank You ! let us know how it works out
Looks great. What is the approximate thickness closed up?
Good question - the foam we used is 30mm thick but that is "squashed" a little so its around 25mm added to the door surface.
What size for the torx screw do you use?
Love it! Some great ideas there. As I’ve already recently bought your table mounting kit is it possible to buy the table and hinge kit on its own? Thanks David
Yes we can do this - as you were an early adopter we can just deduct the price of the bracket kit from the full kit and post out to you. Can you send an email to customer service so we can get this arranged.
@@L663 thanks for that, much appreciated Will do
Wow, got it in Australia already! What shadow foam size and type do you recommend as I think that’s a great addition
Where did you get the green and black bags that are shown attached to the table at the beginning of the video? Do you mind sharing the link to those?
Just from ebay - search molle plate bag or pouch
I still prefer the uncluttered look of my jeep table and I used your fitting kit. However, the use of metal hinges 'staves?' is a big improvement over the silly wires. Any chance we could buy those separately? I get the feeling you've opened a whole can of worms with this mod !!!
Yes this was going to happen... let me see what i can do... should work but they way the straps work is you need to be pretty spot on where you drill the hole in the side of the table ! Send an email to customer service and i will sort something out but I may have to order a couple of extra sets as we only have the straps to suit the number of tables we have !
@@L663 Thanks Simon -really appreciate it..... oh and another great video. Highlight of my week !
Very nice and well executed design. I’ve seen Jeep versions that use simple magnets to hold up the table - would those not work on your design for some reason?
Our table is aluminium to make it nice and light so its not magnetic and the fixing are stainless also not magnetic but magnets could be bonded onto the tray etc.
Love this table but not sure I need a table full of holes the smaller ones ok but I don't think we need the cup holders, the vehicle is going to be stationary the cup can just stand anywhere on the table, stuff is just going to fall though onto the grass underneath! When the cup holders disappear I'll be getting one. Maybe you could offer a blank one too.
Hi Jon - fair comment - we need to be challenged - how about we do a thin semi rigid non slip liner ? plywood liner ? MDF liner etc we could cut on the laser so it was a snug and perfect fit. Or maybe we could make the cup holders held in with tabs like on electrical back boxes that you could punch out if you wanted....
@@L663 How about supplying two plastic push in blanks that you could fit in the cup holder holes and choose one, two or no cup holders with the ability to change your mind any time! 🧐🙂🙂😀
Another point..the knurled nut retainers at the top, could those be two 90 degree turn cam locks so making them faster and less likely to get dropped and lost? You just make a cut out in the tray for the handle (?) to pass through then turn downwards to give a one movement lock. Considerations are..rattles..enough clearance, over centre or sprung locking action….over to your designers!! 🤭🧐🧐😃😃😃😃
@@L663 I think either of those could work a liner would be better for me, I use my defender for work, sometimes in the middle of a field, will need to use a laptop on my table so the holes not good for a mouse.
Please make one without cupholes and add more molle hole instead like the molle panel for the rear window.@@L663
When can we order the larger bumper protection you have on your car, can't find it on the website 😊🇸🇪
Why can't i fit led tail light bulbs in a range rover sport 2006 without getting, transmission failure, suspension lowered, hdc fault. ?
Hi there... I am wondering if you might know what my passenger door (right hand) no longer locks. I can no longer secure the car. The other doors lock. Best!
This is interesting problem - does the screen show the door is still open ? you could try disconnecting and re-connecting the battery -ve ( under the seat ) this will reset the BCM ( body control module ). Other things could be poor connection in the door electrical connector / failed door module.
Can you please let me know the product weight?
Hi - with packing its 2.5Kg according to our system
At what point does a work in progress finish?😊
A very good point ... innovation and improvement are exciting but sometimes it feels never ending ! maybe its journey that is fun... not arriving at the destination
What could be more British ? A defender built in Slovakia!,
Indeed - good point.
