DC100 "the new Defender concept"
I put this over on the Defender forum because I thought it was more appropriate. I wanted to let me fellow LR3ers in on it, though. http://forums.landroverworld.org/showthread.php?p=118809#post118809 -

possibly selling raised air intake
Hey all, I wanted to gauge any interest in a used raised air intake that I have. I purchased it (as part of a bundle of other LR3 accessories) from someone who had purchased a used LR3 with it on and didn't want it. Unfortunately, I only ended up with the two large (main) plastic pieces... -

In-dash Kenwood
I stumbled across this on youtube today. I thought it was interesting, so I thought I would share. It looks like they sell the kit for $450+shipping. YouTube- 2007 LAND ROVER LR3 Indash Kenwood DNX7140 Install -

goodies
So I just found a guy who wanted to get rid of his Land Rover roof rack, off-road lights for the rack, and snorkel for a pretty good price. I am planning on going to pick them up tomorrow, but he said that he had the faring on the roof rack removed because he didn't like the looks of it. Has... -

brake controller
Hey all. I need to pick up a break controller before the weekend after next. I don't know much about them. I am planning on ordering the controller from Atlantic British: http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/ETBCA.cfm Any words of wisdom before I pull the trigger? Thanks. -

I know the LR3 has a rock crawl mode, but...
Should I really expect to hang with the big boys? Hey guys. I've had my LR3 for almost a year now. I'm all stock except for my Hankook DynaPro ATM RF10 (P265/65R-18) tires. I was out exploring a nearby canyon that is very popular with local offroaders. I was reading a local 4x4 forum that... -

individual 18" LR3 Wheels (and worn tires)
I got sick of waiting to find a single wheel for sale, so I bought four! I have my full-size spare, but now I need to sell the other three wheels. I have had them listed locally, but I'm not getting much interest. I'll sell them for $70 + shipping costs. No idea what shipping costs are, but... -

Power Steering Fluid
I was changing my oil last week (on my 06 LR3 SE w/ 25k miles) and I noticed that my power steering is exactly on the minimum fill line. I don't know how long it has been this way as this is the first time I've really looked at it. I don't suspect there is a leak because it hasn't moved at all... -

Jaguard and Land Rover to share platforms
I don't really know anything about the current platforms, but I thought this was interesting: http://www.motorauthority.com/blog/1042720_jaguar-and-land-rover-to-share-platforms I wonder if it will effect offroadability. Oops, title should say "Jaguar" obviously. -

Moab Trail Ratings
Hey all. I'm getting excited for a trip to Moab this spring. I noticed this page with off-road ratings for Moab trails: http://www.utah.com/offroad/moab_trail_ratings.htm For those that have been to Moab, I am just wondering what sort of trails you have tackled and with what equipment... -

Nitto Terra Grappler 255/60/18
I just noticed that Discount Tire has the Nitto Terra Grapplers in 255/60/18 (stock dia). Is this something new? I haven't seen any talk about this tire in the stock size. I still haven't pulled the trigger on a new set of tires, and I've got about 24k miles on the stock Goodyears. I got... -

Broke my first part... replacement?
I'm not sure what these are called and I'm not sure when I did this, but I tore one of the plastic (or fiberglass) guards that sit immediately behind the exhaust pipes under the vehicle (when they are running perpendicular to the vehicle). I'm guessing I tore it when I was going through some... -

climate control: heater on auto
Just a quick question. I'm now using the heater for the first time in my 06 SE. One thing I think is weird is that when putting the climate control on "auto," the air only seems to go through the floor. If I try to manually switch the heat to the dash vents (or any other configuration, I... -

Local dealership closed, bummer
I found out this morning that the nearest Land Rover dealership closed. It was about 30 minutes from my house. I did some warranty work a couple of weeks ago and they even said they were going to order a part for me. I called today to see if the part had come in, and found out they had... -

Roof Rack Suggestions?
Hey all. I know that roof racks have been discussed before, but I'm trying to decide on one. I've never owned one, so I'm a bit clueless. Basically I am looking for the following: 1. Something for occasional camping trips for a family of four. 2. Something for occasional... -

Audio input
Hey all. I am still working on a rear entertainment solution, and I think I've got it figured out minus one thing. I have a 2006 SE with no navigation and with the factory satellite radio. I will have a source selector switch with RCA (red and white) audio running out that I would want to... -

Material between glass on doors
What material is this? I originally thought it was plastic, but then when I started to clean it it seemed more like a matte finish paint. Then, I talked to someone who said that it is "shrink wrap plastic" on most vehicles. I am just wondering if anyone here knows for sure. Also, out... -

ipod video with two drop-down screens
This is probably a long shot, but I am wondering if anyone is using ipod to play video in their LR3? I am wanting to get a rear entertainment system installed, but I am thinking about using ipod video (http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB129LL/B?fnode=MTY1NDA0OQ&mco=MTA4MjUwMzk#overview) in... -

Clear Bra
Hey all. Last week, I had a VentureShield installed on my 2006 LR3 with 21,000 miles. I had it done by a local shop, and I think they did a great job. I had the bra installed on the hood, grill, and front bumper. The cost was $389 + tax. I believe you can order the pre-cut bra for cheaper... -

Maximum Gradients
A couple of quick questions about the maximum gradients on the official LR3 specs[1] 1. The ascent/descent gradients are list as 35°/35° "continuous" and 45°/45° "drive through." I guess I read this as "the max is 35° if you're going to be going ascending/descending for more than a 'little... -

Rear Entertainment DVD Player
I've done quiet a bit of searching on the topic, but surprisingly I haven't found much... I purchased an 06 LR3 SE7 V8 a week or two ago, but it doesn't have the rear entertainment. I have a two-year-old and another baby arriving in October, so I would really like to get a DVD player... -

Touch-up paint
I am planning on putting a clear bra on my black LR3, but I have a few small rock chips on the hood and grill. I talked to a couple clear bra places here and they both said to touch up the paint before I brought it in if I didn't want them to put the bra over the chips. Anyway, I checked out... -

Miserably failed cross axle obstacle (need off road help)
So, I took my new 06 LR3 (SE V8) off-road today for the first time today. I was driving on a dry dirt with a small amount of gravel in places. I came across a fairly simple looking cross axle obstacle on an ascent (not too steep at all, maybe 25-degree). I drove right up to the obstacle in...
