The main unit is mounted under the passenger seat on a piece of angled alumininium, as mine is a comercial its not going to get kicked.

Antenna cable is routed through the car behind the panels and out behind the backlight and up under the rear hatch.

Just changed the steering rack, leaking heavier than a goverment secret and LR doesnt sell the seals.
Just changed the diff and transfer box oils.
Gearbox flush is planned next.

Today Tonka rolled over the 90K km mark.
In that time excluding service we have
Changed clock spring og cruise control knapp
Changed blue tooth module.
Used 2 sets of tyres (winter / summer)
Changed brake pads allround.
Changed back light bulbs twice
Changed broken compressor bracket.
Changed steering rack and inner outer joints.
Changed support arms back.
Changed brake hose back due to swelling..
Just changed the battery as a precaution.
Filled lots of diesel and smiled alot.
I dont think thats too much in 5 years and 90 K km.

Well I have just read the entire post, most impressed and you will be sad to see Tonka go I bet after such a lot of work done. Are you going to start modding the D4 in the same way ?

Not as much as I did with Tonka, no winch this time as I didnt really need it.
I have a lightweight to play with and possibly a 90 V8.
