LR033980 - Land Rover Casing assembly-tail door

Land Rover Defender Rear Door Trim Panel - LR033980 (2007–2016)

LR033980 is the genuine rear end (tail door) interior trim panel fitted to Land Rover Defender models from 2007 through 2016. Installed on the inside surface of the rear door, this panel forms the main inner door card and provides the finished interior appearance for Puma‑era Defenders. Designed without an integrated storage pocket, LR033980 represents the clean, factory‑standard door‑card layout used across later Defender L316 models.

Manufactured from durable, automotive‑grade plastic, the panel covers the interior metalwork of the tail door, protecting the door structure from moisture, dirt and impact while also contributing to cabin sound insulation by reducing road and vibration noise entering through the rear door. The trim incorporates moulded mounting points for the door’s internal fittings (such as the handle surround, fasteners, and sealing interfaces) ensuring a precise OE fitment and correct alignment with the Defender’s rear‑door aperture.

As a genuine Land Rover component, LR033980 matches factory specifications for shape, thickness, finish and material quality, guaranteeing long‑term resistance to UV exposure, wear, and repeated door operation. This trim panel replaces earlier tail‑door casings used on pre‑Puma Defenders and supersedes specialist‑vehicle variants such as ESN000200PUY, providing the updated 2007‑onwards interior finish.

Common reasons for replacement include cracked or broken door‑card plastics, water damage, warping from age, or refurbishment during a full Defender interior upgrade. Restorers and owners seeking OEM‑correct detail prefer LR033980 for its authentic fit, clean black finish, and compatibility with all Defender 90, 110 and 130 models built from VIN 7A000001 onward.

For a factory‑accurate interior appearance, long‑term durability, and guaranteed compatibility, LR033980 remains the benchmark rear‑door trim panel for late‑production Defenders.
