I wonder if these can be retrofitted, one would think that since the sensors exist (mirror) that it "should" be able to be added? Also makes you wonder why they had to eliminate it, since it appears to just be a led indicator?
Its sensors in the bumper on RRS and another model according to marketing material.

Just noticed they even cheaped out in the external mirror adjustment ****. I am still stunned at the amount of content removed from these trucks with no consideration for the customer. It seems amazingling short sighted or simply a reflection of JLR culture.
I noticed that too after I took delivery. The **** that's fitted now is not very ergonomic, but with that said it's a use once and forget, so I'm not really mad about it.
This is from the NCAP Safety press release for the Defender: Clear Exit Monitor – Helps warn of a possible threat when preparing to open any door from the inside using sensors in the bumper to monitor approaching traffic.
Not sure if it utilizes the same sensors as the blind spot detection in the mirrors, or if it's different.

Well that's unfortunate. Add it to the list of items known and now unknown missing from my 110 X model. I'm not sure this would be something heavy utilized as someone mentioned earlier, but it's still disappointing knowing X and V8 models should have all the bells and whistles.

I never saw that as a feature in the build tool nor anywhere, nor is it mentioned in the manual I got. Granted, I have an SE, but even if you look at the web the SE and X Dynamic/X doesn't mention it.
That said I'm curious where you're getting the info that it was ever an option?
Who'd've thought buying an MY22 would become such a unicorn.
