Sooooo....Ordered a 110SE a few days before Christmas..Got an updated build sheet a few days before production date with everything intact except for the TFT screen...No biggie as far as I was concerned...Car due in on 4/20 or so. Asked dealer for an updated build sheet last night and received it this morning...Much to my surprise, here is what is missing:
22" Sliver wheels
Comfort & convenience package
Premium LED headlights
This build does, however, have the LED center display. Big deal.
Needless to say, ordering a '24 and hoping for the best.
The wheels could be swapped by the dealer, premium LED headlights l wouldn't bother with because they seem to be failing and new ones are apparently US $4,000
Comfort and convenience package is the only real bummer.
The standard audio system is pretty good though, and l doubt you'd miss the "premium cabin lighting"
As for the fridge well over here in the U.K. there's not much need for one, but it might be different where you are.

of all the things, this was the biggest 13 yo daughter approval for the car. IT HAS A FRIDGE. She is so excited about that, uses it all the time. it's ridiculous how much she likes it.
I don't know if it's because when she was a little one (<2 ) we had a Ford Flex at the time which had a fridge in the middle row console. But boy she loves that fridge at 13.
@lightningThe standard audio system is pretty good .....
No it isn't , the amplifier is pretty good but the speakers are below the $5,- range and real sh#t.
Hereby a picture of what they deliver and what can be done to replace them.
Yep...the supply chain management at JLR is an utter S$it show. Much more so than any auto manufacturers I'm aware of.

I’m guessing you’ve already tried them so the answer to the question “do they fit?” is yes, right? They seem pretty deep.
Follow up to my original post....Apparently there were two orders, one exactly how we spec'd it and the one they sent me.
According to our dealer, our unit will be shipped from the port this week exactly as we ordered it...Will be sure to post pics once it is here..!
Base audio system in our 2023 Defender is terrible compared to the 700w surround sound system in our 2021 Defender. Borderline unbearable after 2 months and 5500 miles of listening to it. Total audio system upgrade coming soon.
Sound deadening and replacement of the front speakers and tweeters with the standard audio system will do for the most of us.
The amplifier is 2ohm, so you have to look for 2ohm spreakers. Not much choice - Blam or Focal.
I'am very happy with the sound now.
