I now have almost everything i need to start installing this, just need the D2 srs connector and some correct colour cable to complete the loom. Radar sensor cam with the plug and about 2" of wiring so at least it will be easy to join.
I need the STL file so i can print a bracket but not got a reply from the disco3 forum yet.

I finally made more progress on this super slow project. A few weeks ago I ran wiring through the firewall. That in itself was not fun at all because I had used up every opening on the driver side for other things. So I had no choice but to go passenger side. While the holes are the same on both side in the sheet metal, there is no way to get to them. Too many computes and plastic bits. But I found away, ran the wires, sealed things up and then it sat. But today I finally unspooled the wires and ran them properly through the wheel well area. Made sure toe twist the two CAN bus wires then applied tape. The actually fitting of the module has been driving me nuts. I have a light bar and winch making very few spots possible. if I went behind the grill I would have reduced air flow to it and the power steering cooler, things I dont want to do. So I hope this location works. Everyone says it works behind the grille so it should work here too. There is about an inch of the radar, at most, visible with the rest behind the bumper. If that bumper material ends up being an issue I may very neatly cut it away to expose the entire face of the radar. I will get a pic when done to show how it looks all put together.

Keep in mind this is some shoddy engineering on my part since I am not even sure this will work out as I hope. Room was super tight, I hade to do a few things to make it all fit nice. I still have to hook up the dash switch and cruise module computer. But hopefully the hard part is over, the rest is just wiring and wont take long.

A disco3 forum member sent me the STL file so now i can print the bracket for the sensor and mount it to the top radiator support.

Is the STL shareable?

Wired mine up finally. Not working, just get "Cruise control unavailable" on the cluster. Maybe have to contact GAP as the ACC eco may need a refresh as mentioned in the DiscoUK forum. But question.... Does the ACC module show up in ECU infos? If so, then I may have a wiring issue to check first.

IIRC mine did not show up as an independent system. Which CFF items did you configure, for me there were 3 separate entries required. If the radar module is fried, you'll get a brief flash of the ACC button on startup and then a 'cruise unavailable'. If you are seeing nothing, I suspect it's either a configuration issue or the control module. - Scott
