I have my new TPMS but the Disco is still at the body shop. Was scheduled (again) to pick up today but they found something else broke and will not be until Monday.

Mike, you have any pics of that beast lit up? Interested how that array of front beams and the rear light bar throw the light.

Was considering doing three of the 6" lights around the sides and rear.

If like other models, light on dash and chime at start up. Then constant light on dash. Just a guess though.

ok that’s not so bad then. If going off road for a few days I could easily live with a little light.

How are you finding the LLams system? Any electrical problems and how is it performing?

I picked up a 2018 Discovery last month. I have been doing a few mods to get it a little more off road ready. This Forum has been a great resource for ideas.
Here is what I got so far.
- 275/55/20 gooodyear duratrac tires
- 43 inch light bar
- 2 - 8" LED front lights
- side and rear LED spot lights
- Kuat roof rack with bike mounts, caries shovel and traction mats.
- Trigger wireless switch.
Lots to come...

Has any been seen an option for front tow or recovery hooks? I got buried in the mud the first week I got the Rover and found it ridiculously hard to remove the front recovery hook cover whilst submerged in water. I did notice one of the Land Rover test vehicles has a square cut out, instead of always driving with the cover off. A crude but effective fix, I'm sure I could clean it up a bit with some trim.
Any ideas or other options?
