Bulkhead Vent Hinge Pin Kit in stainless steel - replaces the pivot pins on which the bulkhead (scuttle) air vent flaps hinge.

The original steel pins corrode in service, stiffening the vent flaps and staining the surrounding bulkhead. The stainless steel pins resist corrosion and restore smooth, free movement of the flaps.

The set comprises 4 threaded stainless steel hinge pins and 8 stainless steel domed (acorn) end nuts.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Bulkhead Vent Hinge Pin Kit used for?
The Bulkhead Vent Hinge Pin Kit replaces the pivot pins that the bulkhead (scuttle) air vent flaps hinge on, fitting the Land Rover Series 2, Series 3 and Defender up to 2016. The original steel pins corrode and stiffen the flaps, while these stainless pins restore smooth movement.
How many pins are in the kit?
The kit is a set of 4 stainless steel hinge pins supplied with 8 domed (acorn) end nuts. That covers both bulkhead vent flaps on the vehicle, so you typically only need one kit to refurbish the pair of scuttle vents.
Where are the bulkhead vent hinge pins located?
The pins sit on the bulkhead (scuttle) air vents, below the windscreen, where the two vent flaps open into the cabin on Series and Defender models. They let the flaps pivot open and closed, and seize up when the original steel pins corrode.
