Yes very easy to do once you find the electrical connection, strip out the centre console and then look for a lump of foam which is wrapped around the electrical socket MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

MY12 D4 HSE Nara Bronze Sold and gone
MY11 D4 HSE Stornaway Grey Sold and gone

And they run your battery flat if left on, happened to me yesterday, didn't have the fridge on for any reason seems I knocked the switch by accident when getting something out, so be careful, they DO NOT stop working when power gets low to ensure the car will start, I have a brand new LR battery so it's not that 
Luckily I was at home, had I been out and about I would have been really  sed off!

DT, mine is on a switched live so it doesn't stay on when the car is switched off. Not great if you're on a short journey as the drinks don't get too cold. Running for over 45 mins or so = cold drinks  My17 Volvo XC90 Inscription

Flat batteries caused by fitting the D4 coolers to D3s has been covered on here a number of times, nothing new... 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

I'm just highlighting the issue to the OP as not everyone can read every post ever posted, is that alright?

Thanks Steve, may have to do the same with mine, the switch is in a vulnerable place and can easily be activated by mistake, as there is no other warning light on the dash once the lid is shut you are at the mercy of your battery if left on, another stunning well thought out design by Land Rover

Land Rover didn't intend the D4 cooler to be fitted to D3s, so they can't be blamed for that one. Try again. 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

D3 cooler in a D3 will turn itself off when battery voltage drops below a preset level. 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
