Installed a Garmin GPS along with a wireless backup camera function. Fits in there nicely.

The relay in the fuse box for the ABS. Weird. Had to go and pop the hood on my Disco . . . . yup it was doing the same thing. Anyone else notice this? Why the heck?!?!?
not sure why it happens, but all of mine do the same.

Old Mojave Road, started at hwy 95 East to West. Stock suspension, only upgrade is 30.5" tires. Aired the tires down to 20/30. Used center lock sometimes, low range only one time. Piute Mountains is the hardest part, but the Land Rover took it with ease. Jeeps tried to ignore me. Mojave "River" crossing is only a few inches deep right now, water barely reached the rims.

Default Installed A Pillar Trim Pieces

Installed A Pillar Trim Pieces. Took about 45 minutes. Major takeaway: make sure the clips are installed correctly on the trim. They were installed backwards on the driver side trim which almost made it break. Other than that, looks nice and less wind noise on the highway. Additional tips in the link below:

When did you move to Mars?

Oh wait.

Of course, you have a Mars Rover! Makes sense!

Yikes. Just watch your levels I guess. I had one blow out the side of cylinder 6 that only leaked exhaust gas.
