Only my luck....I used to live a short ride from Sarek. Now that I have a Defender, I'm halfway across the country!

Also, nice to see your aluminum bumper in black -- very interesting to see it on an unlifted Defender. I see you have the sensors in place -- nice !
Thank you! Here is another angle

Yes. We remove the stock ones and install one larger one in the center

@sarek are these rails available for purchase yet? I have been keeping my eye out for something more low profile like this.

Yes, they are available as a custom order. We currently need the vehicle at our shop to perform the final fitment and install. We offer them for the 90 and 110 with or eithout mudflaps. We also offer an optional tree bar/slider for those that want added protection. HDPE replaceable slider material is also on the bottom impact section.

Bumping as well / looking for Sliders for the 110 here.
The ones from Voyager look poorly done to me (I have rock sliders on 2 other Land Rovers) and I can't get over them putting their logo on everything: deal killer.
Also keen to know how much they weigh (as aluminum sliders surely are far less than steel)

Seems like multiple people are interested here. Could you post installed cost and weight here? Do they require any cutting or is it direct bolt on? If you would prefer I can DM you.

Thanks!

They require no cutting, but they do require some nut-certs weight is roughly 35lbs per side i believe. You can dm me for pricing. It is definitely quite a bit more money than the lk8 and voyager units.

The company selling these in Australia is apparently the reseller for Matzker in Germany. The Euro price does seem a bit better, but still around $1600 for the no tube sliders. And thats before however much shipping would cost (assuming the boat doesn't sink the Atlantic). We could really use someone here in the States to import these.
