Default 2024 wheel arch protectors. (wide fenders)

So one of these says the 2024 has a different unit for the wheel arches but when I looked it up on the US website today it says this. Do you guys take this to mean that the 2020 through 2024 use the same?

I have been trying to figure this out too as I have a 24 90s on order. I found the following but cannot find anyone to confirm if the 20-23 fenders fit or not.

Several JLR dealer sites list the 90 and 110 as fitting 2020 and up. They haven't redesigned the vehicles in any way so I'm not sure why they would not fit.

Have you installed any on a 2024? There is some confusion over the possibility of Land Rover making changes because of this notice.

Got confirmation from my dealer who had to reach out to Land Rover. The 2024 does indeed have a new part number for the wheel arches and it isn't for sale yet. My dealer was unsure what changed.

I can confirm that the 2023 Wheel Arches fit the 2024 just fine. May be a new part number but the 2023's fit perfectly with no issues. I doubt the 2024 arches are a different part but can't say for sure since I haven't seen them.

My guess is the dealer is confused because there's now a 130 in the mix and computer says no.

Perhaps LR have rebadged the part numbers to make a clear distinction between the 3 variants of wheel arch design. 90,110,130 whereas before there were only 2.

It's much the same with sourcing basic parts like oil filters etc. For a good while anything with MY22 in my case would say "does not fit". It's just that the system isn't updated and salesbros will just follow that.

That makes sense. My dealer also pushed back and didn't want to order until the part showed up in the system but insisted anyways.
