I'm surprised they didn't come back for 07, got to be better than a TV tuner I really miss my old ones DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone
DS3 TDV6 HSE- Silver with Alpaca (new one) Gone
D4 HSE Lux - Montalcino Red Gone
Porsche Cayenne V8 Diesel S
Followed the instructions at the start of the thread and fitted well. A few points:
As the man in the volvo garage said, don't disconect the battery - who ever heard of an airbag going off with the ignition off ..... So I didn't
There is a dedicated slot for the ticket clip to click into - you can only see it when you fully remove the trim.
Goes back together a treat if you are patient.
Thanks for the tip - all sorted, and I've only had the car 2 days.

Have to agree this is an old thread to bring up again, but I'm glad somebody did.
I use the ticket holders in my 55 plate D3 all the time and didn't realise they were not in newer cars.
I'll be taking them out of mine if I upgrade to a D4.

I've just got an extra tax disc holder (cling type one that you slip the disc in from the back) and I just pop the ticket in there. Saves any worry of it slipping behind the dash.

I have always thought the ticket holders are great but at easter i got a parking fine notice because the attendant couldn't see the expiry time because of the window shading around the edge of the windscreen.
i got let off on apeal but at £50 a pop i might not take the chance again

Curry hook
Hasn't it already been established that the curry hook is inside the lower glove compartment ?

But that leaves all the junk in the glovebox able to fly out backwards on swift acceleration. I miss the curry hook a la D2, that was true genius but obviously LR think we've moved upmarket and get our takeaways delivered.

The curry hook was on the passenger side of the centre console, in the footwell. As a devout curry monster, I found it invaluable in the D2 days.
Now, I have to place my curry on the passenger seat, AND put its seatbelt on! If I don't it puts the warning on (or at least it did until I used Ecosse's fix to stop the bong)
Gareth, you did know the D4 has curry hooks on the inside edges of the lower glove box ? Open the lid, hook the bags, close the lid..... Job done If I'm teaching anyone to suck eggs here, please accept my apologies
