All the detailed pics for this mod and others are currently trapped on a broken hard disk so I can't show you guys the 'how to'. Until then, here's the finished product. Basically, as I now have a speaker in the storage box between the seats, I needed to 'reclaim' some space, in an already...

Thanks Mike. Don't worry I put sound deadening in the car, including on the roof and in the centre console! I can do a full write up for anyone interested as this part was tricky and time consuming, also as I only had one console I had to get it correct first time - I mostly achieved this...

Hello everyone. This will be a big project thread I wanted to share with you to show what can be done to a MK1 Freelander and for inspiration to others to give them 'ideas' with other vehicles too. As it's such a big project, I'll post it in parts so not to overwhelm people reading and looking...

Thanks for the tip, I won't do it myself as I don't have the strength but I'll find someone I'm sure.

I'm wanting to colour code the plastic panel, and am doing a few little mods that require a re-spray to body colour. Your idea is sensible thank you, but I've spent so long modifiying it, I want to finish the last bits off how I wanted it. I think I'll cut the plastic bits out and hope for...

Hi. RE: MK1 Freelander (facelift 2004 on): This is probably an unanswered question as unless you want to repaint your tailgate door/trim, no one would do this. On the part of the vehicle (see photo) I'm trying to remove the plastic trim panel, but can't work out how to as... If you remove the...

Hi Gary, have you seen this thread from a while back, there are lots of posts to read it might help you out. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/td4-fitting-cruise-control.186205/ Cheers.

Thanks Mike. Is the towing relay behind one of the plastic side panels in the boot? I seem to remember when I fitted the 12v 'accessory socket' (cuts into the trim panel), on the left hand side in the boot that had some bits and bobs near it, maybe that was the towing relay? Ages ago I found in...

Thank you for the detailed write up and photos of your upgrade, it's helpful for many in the future I'm sure.

Hi NeedleNose (cool name BTW), thank you for replying and now other people have kindly joined in the thread too. I am very grateful, thank you, as I am stuck in a 'project' and have speakers strapped to a bulky MDF board in my bedroom (with four door cards!) all waiting to be put back in, but...

Hello Mike, thank you for your help. My car certainly has the free Landrover water feature in the boot, which was also on the ceiling (rust!). As water and electricity don't mix I've never gotten around to installing car audio but as the car interior has been remove for 3 years, I finally got...

Hi, thank you for your reply and suggestions. Amp: I'm running an 'old skool' Pioneer-GMX 924 in the tailgate door card, or will be. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/Amplifiers/GM-X924 I realise it's old (1998) and under-powered, but I wanted to use it up as it's been in storage...

Hello. I'm at the end of a project installing an amplifier into my rear tailgate door card to power 'a few' speakers bolted onto the door card in a custom rack I designed. The task is nearly complete, but I just remembered as I was going to buy an 'amp wiring kit' that the distance from the...

Wheels look fantastic (matt black? mine are satin black and look less 'mean') your car is in equal excellent condition to the wheels as well which helps make the chunky wheel look ever more effective as the car is obviously well loved. Is yours the first lifted 'Sport' Freelander 1, we have on...

The code for the factory stereo should be in your owners handbook. If you can't find it I believe you can contact a LR dealer give them the VIN number and license plate and they should have it on file somewhere. If you have an aftermarket stereo, then you're perhaps out of luck (the pin code...

Looks great, good job, and it's transformed your car. I just got mine resprayed as they'd rusted (after market speaker grills in metal).

Hi, if anyone travels to Harrogate I've got a brand new RH Passenger door card someone can have if they can pick it up? Interior trim colour: Light Tundra (see photo to check) Requirements: MK1 Freelander Facelift (2004-2006) 5 dr. Part No: ELB500810HPP The catch? You must already have your...

Thank you for your help, I'll have a go and see how far I get.

I wonder if it's possible to use a diesel tuning box + a bespoke remap on a rolling road, without blowing the engine up?

Thanks for the reply. By ''the first one'', do you mean the first image in the photo of 3 studs, the square based (what I call re-inforced) ones, e.g the whole rear door card uses these? Please see attachment. Sorry for the hassle but I need to try and order the parts.
