That looks like a really nice job Matt. Rear table/galley is the best addition. I have folks asking me about it all the time.

Discovered the iPad and GoPro mounting arms I bought didn’t come with mounting screws so it’s just holes in the dash right now. Wanted to play with the go pro on the drive to soccer but no screws came with the thing I got off amazon to mount the go-pro.

Next up is to get the ARB compressor and mount that, hopefully after tax season or bonus time.
Please let me know how the ARB compressor goes!

I know it's working, or partially working because the gearshift more works - it wont upshift when in sport and manually shifting. The other settings I can't tell a difference.
What do you mean by activations?

He means features that his Defender doesn't have, but are software related and can be "turned on" using the diagnostic computer.

been a work in progress. had a great local shop help with the install.

- factory a bar w/ warn xeon 10s platinum winch

- baja designs s8 led light bar installed w/ lucky8 mounting brackets

- factor 55 ultrahook

on a side note, really glad i had the lucky 8 brackets powder-coated black, instead of keeping them silver.

thanks! i ordered all the parts though the dealership. they had never done an install before.

the local shop was willing to watch the great videos from @PowerfulUK and install the baja designs. definitely glad i had them do it.

if you need a list of all the parts… let me know!

cheers!
