"TFC" is member 10forcash.
All round on everything Discovery3. (There's quite a few others who are as well )
Done many things to D3's that i'm sure LR don't know how to do.... perhaps he should work for LR on the D4 product..... what d'ya reckon 10?
I'm sure he'll be around on the forum later or if not try the messaging system.
cheers!

Cheers Guys...
i'd be happy to provide anyone with a specification & price to install roof lights or anything else Disco 3 related, obviously the higher the required spec. the higher the price, but you will get what you want and it won't be done by your typical dealer 'spanner monkey' (not that they all are, most are great but work within the constraints that LR and the dealer place upon them )
Frequent requests have been:-
Roof lights
Driving lights
Winch installs
Second / auxilary battery
Additional power sockets
together with purely mechanical items such as raised air intakes, rear ladders etc.

TFC - raised air intake?
First question - how much to fit?
Second question - how noisy are they - wind noise i'm thinking of? I do mainly motorway mileage and i was wondering how much extra wind/road noise they generate. But i do think they look 8) and TBH the last ford i went through my buttocks clenched rather hard as the water went over the front windscreen....
PM me if you have a sliding charge policy

wind noise isn't an issue, if you have the window open, you can hear the induction 'growl' at low speeds, which is either 8) or depending on your disposition.....

Think i'll have to have a listen next weekend.
Anybody care to demonstrate, then i'll ask you for a price....
Is it a supply and fit or fit only?
Sapphire going down well tonight....

Nick @ yeovil can supply for a decent price... postage is reasonable too
it may be a few weeks before i'm able to supply & fit at decent rates, but it's work in progress
and yer, it's going down well - lucky i've got a 0.75 litre bottle as an emergency spare

AndrewS - you'll let ME drive the Red Pearl
me, you aint seen me drive yet
Thanks - think i'm sold already TBH, but just want to make sure it aint too invasive.
TFC - just started to drink again after 9 months, 17 days, 4 hours and 27 minutes of being dry.... 2nd bottle of King Cobra going down quite nicely might just be in practice for Rockingham.
