Land Rover Defender 90 truck cab PVC hood and sticks for sale
Land Rover Defender 90 truck cab PVC hood and sticks. This is the soft top setup for a 90 truck cab. The hood is PVC, and it comes with the sticks, which are the metal frame hoops that hold the shape. If you’ve got a truck cab and want to close in the back, or your old hood is split, faded or missing its frame, this is the complete way to sort it.
Why people go for PVC. It’s cheaper than canvas, it’s waterproof, and it wipes clean. Canvas looks better and lasts longer if you look after it, but PVC does the job and it doesn’t mind being left out in the rain. If the truck lives outside or gets used hard, PVC is the practical choice. It’s also lighter, which matters when you’re taking it on and off on your own.
The sticks matter as much as the hood. A soft top without a proper frame sags, flaps at speed and pools water in the middle. The sticks hold the shape so the hood sits right and the rain runs off. If you’re buying a hood on its own, check whether your existing frame is straight and complete, because bent or missing sticks are common and they’re not always easy to find separately. This listing includes them, which saves you the hunt.
A few things to check before you buy:
-
Confirm it’s for the 90 truck cab. Hoods for the 110 and 130 are different sizes and won’t fit.
-
Check the stick set is complete. Count the hoops and the side rails against what your truck needs.
-
Look at the hood condition. PVC can crack at the folds, and the stitching goes around the windows and the rear flap.
-
Check the fixings. Press studs, ropes, tensioners and the channel that fits the screen top. Ask what’s included.
-
Look at the windows. Cloudy or cracked panels are hard to fix and usually mean a new hood.
-
Ask about the colour. PVC comes in black, grey and sand, and you want it to match or at least not clash.
Fitting is easier with two people. Get the frame on first and check it sits level before you pull the hood over. Warm weather helps, because PVC stretches better in the sun and shrinks when it’s cold. If you fit it on a frosty morning, expect a fight.
One note. If you’re converting from a hard top, you’ll need the right rear body cappings and the screen channel for the hood to attach to. Check what your truck already has before you order, or ask us and we’ll tell you what else you need.
You can buy this hood and stick set from landrovergenuinepart.com. Order online, or email us first if you want to confirm fitment before you purchase. We’d rather check the details up front than have you send it back later.
When you get in touch, tell us your model, year and whether it’s already a truck cab or you’re converting. A photo helps. That’s usually enough for us to confirm whether this will go straight on.

“Renovating an older 300Tdi and wanted to use genuine gaskets. This set of gaskets arrived as promised, the head, manifold and valve stem seals were genuine. Supplied all correctly packed, my engine builder confirmed they were genuine and fitted without dramas. Finding genuine spares for classic Land Rovers is getting harder, so I’m really glad of web sites like themselves.”
