    Aye it would make sense Can someone tell me what the gap between the centre of the wheel and the arch should be on the rear at standard height (hse with 19"wheels as I don't know of its sitting a bit low at the back) probably just being paranoid I think lol

    Picked it up yesterday

    I didn't get the part numbers, I'll post them up when I buy them but there pretty easy to find, they are held on with 3 clips so I think they may just pull up, should be pretty self explanatory once you have the new ones in your hand I hope, also the trims between the doors are only £20+vat each...

    Picked it up yesterday

    Well just popped to landrover, the trims for the bottom on the windows are about £35+vat each so ill be getting some of them after Christmas and i went to 2 bodyshops, one said I would need to remove number and arch liner to see how bad it is but couldn't give a price until then, the other one...

    I think the trims on the bottom of the so does are steel, I'm off to my old delership to get some prices for the trims so I'll post how much they are, going to a body shop to get some advice on the bubbles under the paint aswell

    Picked it up yesterday

    Did they just blow it in? I'm worried about a colour match, don't want it to stand out, I'll have a look round a few body shops, glad I'm not the only one lol

    Yeah I'm hoping you can buy them seperatley, they are all just little niggles apart from the few tiny bubbles under the paint :(

    Yeah I out that above, don't think that's the door though, just the trim?

    Picked it up yesterday

    Yeah I noticed that works, I'll get some pics up, the main thing that worries me is the little bubbles under the paint on the arch, is it a common problem and how quick is it likely to worsen?

    Luckily I served my time as a mechanic for landrover when I left school so still know quite a few people who work there so when the inevitable happens they should be able to help :)

    Hse aux in

    Just picked the car up today, havn't had a good look round yet but according to the owners manual the cd changer is in the glove box, just wondering how to put an aux in like you mentioned, also if I do this will I still be able to use the single slot on the dash for cd's? Thanks again

    Hse aux in

    Just seen the link hippo, the one I'm buying has the headunit you originally had in, iv been looking at them aftermarket all in one units you now have on eBay and they range from £300-£500 which seems a bargain and that's the route I'm going down after Christmas, they are pretty much identical...

    Hse aux in

    I'm buying an 2003 range rover hse this weekend and it has the standard radio (no tv) just wondering if anybody knows a way of getting an aux port for my iPhone, on my previous BMW I bought a lead that you just added to the connector block at the back of the headunit, anything similar for the...
