Sorry to hear of the woes. We have installed countless ones here and I too have them on 2 of my D2s. Like all manufactured parts, there is a variable for error and we are sorry it happened to yours. Shoot me an email: erik@LK8parts.com or call me anytime today during business and I will get another sent out asap for you.

I agree 100%. I was referred to Erik by Abran at CARRS4X4 in California.

I just emailed Erik.

Because it say 'Landrover' on the box doesn't defo mean it's kosher. Many parts are made for LR in eastern europe, I'm not saying they are bad or defective but they just maybe. Often LR parts are illegally 'copied' in the far east, as are pharmaceuticals, but still appear in the large distributors and indeed, hospitals. So before fitting LR parts it's best to test them first especially when they have an 'invisible' function.

I thought that 'invisible ' technology was still classified? Maybe the new full sized Discos will have them. Not a fan of the 'sporty' smallish Discos. Too much like the Evoque - a fine vehicle for the ladies.

Lucky 8 has EXCELLENT SERVICE!

They sent me a new thermostat with a prepaid return label to send back the defective thermostat!

Doesn't get much better than that!
