    smashed mirror

    Wifey somehow managed to shatter the driver's side mirror glass. It's heated of course (not sure if that is standard or part of the cold weather package) and it appears to have a soldered electrical connection behind the glass. Can I just buy the replacement glass or do I need the entire...

    LR3 <> LR4 mods

    Thinking about push bar and sidesteps/sliders (probably wrong terms) for our Lr3. If we upgrade to Lr4 in the future, can I switch the mods over to the new truck? (same wheelbase, mounting points etc etc)? I might as well ask the reverse too: I'd love to put an Lr4 steering wheel in my 3. And...

    Another tire question...

    Ehh, the Generals are on backorder everywhere. Before I pull the trigger on the Coopers, somebody assauge me and confirm that the 285-60-18's WILL FIT on the factory 10 spoke 18's.

    Another tire question...

    Thanks. I think I've narrowed it down to the Zeons and the Grabber AT2. I like the fact the the Grabber is severe snow rated (in 285-60-18). They appear to both be competent off road,so I'm trying to find info to compare on-road noise/handling and snow traction.

    Another tire question...

    If you're talking about the Cooper Zeons, they are still on the website...http://www.coopertire.com/Flash/index.aspx, go to detailed tire specs. And I called my local tire shop, available for $155 each.

    Another tire question...

    How are they on-road? Noise, handling? Do they have the mountain snowflake rating? Good place to buy online?

    Another tire question...

    Thanks for all the replies guys. It's tough wading through so much info...I really would prefer smooth on-road ride and winter traction, at the expense of off-road traction. I'm leaning towards the Nokian WRG2, but I see on the website that the 255-60-18 have a total diameter of 26.8; I...

    Another tire question...

    I'm on vacation and just noticed my OE GY's are pretty much shot. Actually I'm seeing much greater wear on the outer part of the tread than the inside...seems to be an alignment issue, but is this common? In any event, I need some new tires; I've begun browsing the search results but I don't...

    Tire fitment?

    I came across an opportunity pick up a set of brand new 265-65-18's Bridgestone Duelers for next to nothing. Can I run this size on my LR3? I know the overall diameter will be slightly greater. My stock 255-60-18's are (thankfully) just about done.

    Wipers

    I ended up getting the Bosch's and so far, very happy. No more noise and great clearing. We'll see how they hold up.

    Wipers

    Need new windshield wipers. Dealer wants $50. Anything special to them, or should I just go to NAPA and pick up some replacement blades? Any recommendations?

    New to LR

    I don't think you can retrofit the dvd nav, but someone wiser will chime in. Just get a Garmin...I have one in a beanbag mount on the shelf at the top of the center stack, like it was made to sit there!

    New to LR

    No, it's DVD-based, the maps on stored on DVDs.

    Please assist a prospective LR3 owner.

    I hear ya. We're anticipating another little one late next year, so we'll have an 18 mo old and a newborn, I'd like to buy something compact that will last at least a few years with the 2 of them...
