Rear Diff lock

This is probably a stupid question but is it possible to fit a diff lock onto a automatic T25? I am finding i am venturing into a few more places that are causing problems on my fishing trips and thought i could add some all terrain tyres and a lift kit? I am sure i know the answer already though

Re: 2.1 stalling on idle

I finally found the problem for this, I had a bad set of plug leads. Noticed arching in the dark when having problems. Swapped them for a new set and the stalling problems have been solved

interior lights coming on at 20mph

Just a quick question, had my MOT yesterday and all passed fine, however, the interior lights are coming on while driving at about 20mph and above. Any ideas on what might have happened?
