I paid £ 47.66 per set - so that sounds about right - but still very wrong

Yup - same part numbers - guess they will blame it on our crappy exchange rate

If they can charge £90 for a boot MAT (NOT the heavy duty liner, just a FLAT mat) then that doesn't surprise me! I'm always surprised as to dealer accessory charges, not only Land Rover, most seem to think that having their own logo molded into a piece of rubber doubles the price.

I was told from another member here they would be around £11 each

I'm sorry Taz, but that is the price they used to be, and what Nick quoted me before for them. What brackets out of interest - the bracket is built into the flap?
I've got an invoice from my local LR dealer here for one, and as of the 16th of May anyway, they were €12.15 + VAT (£8.25 +VAT).
So if they're more now, it appears as if LR have 'corrected' the price of them to bring them in line with the UK mudflaps. IE - 05 D3 TDV6 HSE - Zambezi Silver
SA - 07 VW Golf TDI - White - Sold!

Nick mentioned the other day that LR are very sharp on pricing, so if they see an item gain in popularity they whack the price up. They've done it with a whole heap of accessories, including the RRS S/C black Land Rover badges. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

brendan - the brackets are the Z shaped things that fix back to the bodywork, not fitted but supplied and charged for seperately - amazing that one of these was priced at about £1 and the other £5 
I did query the prices of these and the mudflaps but was told these ARE the current LR prices.
Not to worry though I fitted them OK and they do look good (not rained yet so no testing)

Any idea what the partnumber for what you got was? I've never heard of seperate brackets needed to fit mudflaps - has anyone else? IE - 05 D3 TDV6 HSE - Zambezi Silver
SA - 07 VW Golf TDI - White - Sold!

Save your money. They are too hard (inflexible) unless you never go off-road. In Australia we get the rears as standard fair, but the fronts cost ~AU$150/pair (2006 SE). All of mine are in various stages of dis-repair, one is now hanging by a thread....
I am now thinking functional rubber is the go. Won't be as 'pretty' but they might last longer and will certainly be cheaper.... D3 (06) SE TDV6, Rear Locker, Rear Air, ARB bar w/winch, Safari Snorkel, 110l aux fuel tank, Kaymar rear bar (twin wheel carrier), Black Widow rear storage system, Rhino rack, GME UHF, Codan HF, IPF HID lights, CSA Explorer 17" w/BFG Mud Terrain KM2 - see Australian 4WD Monthly #103

this is what I got on the parts invoice :
LCAT500103PCL MUDFLAP ASSY = £22.00
LCAT500113PCL MUDFLAP ASSY = £22.00
LCAX500041 BRACKET = £1.90
