Looking good. Did mine in piano black.

Love piano black trim but couldnt do it in mine,she has black leather and black everywhere else,needed to brighten it up inside

Goint to do the door caps,switch surround and speedo surround to match. Any body know if the front of the stereo comes off easily?

This picture says otherwise... :love:

Drove my rangey home after fitting another engine in it, seems good now, hope this doesn't end up the same way ....

I know it's been done to death, but still abit confused as to which unit to get for accessing settings etc

My suspension is well out and I need to calibrate it.

So do I buy allcoms, msv or hawkeye or what ever the rest are???

Answers on a postcard and are much appreciated
Thanks

Rebuilt EAS compressor. Not a bad job and much much better.

All Comms is only a fault code reader and clearer with the ability to recalibrate the EAS

The hawkeye can read some live data but not recal the EAS

The MSV is awesome but comes at a price! It is the ultimate and does everything

Cheers Ant, just what I wanted to know! Nice and simple


On another note, if anyone is interested, l322 heated drivers seat trim, if anyone is interested I'd do a better price for fellow LZers

Forgot there is also the IIDTool from GAPDiagnostics - apparently very good bit uses the message centre as a display, which is fine but what if there is a problem with it?? Have thought of the IIDTool myself but All Comms was cheaper at the time!

What about that new system Britpart were doing? Has anyone actually got one yet?

Isn't it just the gap diagnostics IID tool distributed by ****part?

Sure they just distribute it, not actually ther own

That looks ok,having leather on the dash helps,but still a bit dark.
Im just after a bit of brightness cos fake wood just dont float my boat,
I used to have a jag XJ6 sovereign,that had real wood and looked great becuse you could see the grain!
Im sure there are plenty on here that like their dashboards,its just my personal preference( cue abuse!!) LOL

Changed the brake fluid for 5.1. Got a decent pedal now. I thought mine were ok till I drove another. Just goes to show how **** the fluid goes after a while.

Also went out shopping and couldn't resist doing this...............

Not it's not, it's a bespoke product produced by Omnitec for Britpart - Omnitec are the makers of Land Rover's official diagnostic tools - Testbook T4. So the Britpart Lynx might turn out to be the bargain of the century.

All my other Range Rovers had a Bull Bar at some point, just had to have one on the L322 and winning the auction at £41 and it only being 20 miles up the road to collect was a great find....some like 'em, some hate 'em...me I like 'em!!

Your info was spot on the money Deasy, gave me the total confidence to drill holes in my bumper, and right there were the two holes per side with captive nuts already and waiting....

Without your photos, I would've have continually second guessed myself - but with them it clearly showed what was behind the bumper....many many thanks
