Default LR3 newbie here...couple of questions

1- my AC vent is making a chirping noise that's driving me crazy! Any solution for that...that I (myself) can do??

2- I saw a picture of a silver LR3 with a LR4 "looking" grill. Also, it had BFG AT KO tires. Basically it's exactly what I want my car to look like...but I cant find the pic or who it was??

3- where do you get a a LR4 grill like that? I realize it's not really an LR4 grill....

4- If I get my running boards removed, will it leave VERY noticeable marks where the factory had to cut the plastic when they installed them?


Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated!! Thanks!

the noise you are hearing is the blend door actuator rubbing, there is an update "grease" that quites the noise. remove the upper glove box and you can access the blend door motor to spray some wd40 or silicon.

its just couple of clips that hold it in place but they are strong clips so will take good effort to just pull it off. pull down the door and with a pick tool yank the assembly out. you can also remove the passengers ride side air vent for better access by also just pulling on it

no paint marks but the exterior mouldings have to be cut into on the bottom to get them on.
