Rear Seat DVD System
txAlfa - yes, I'm looking at having to cut into the headrest to remount the handles; I'm thinking that some sort of bar may have to be inserted between the two handles in order to provide the proper rigidity (just speculating as to the construction of the factory headrests). A 9" diagonal... -

Rear Seat DVD System
Will definitely snap and post a few pictures. BTW, I too have the tan interior - my last set matched the tan interior of my Freelander pretty closely - I'm keeping my fingers crossed... -

Rear Seat DVD System
txAlfa - from what I've read over on the disco.co.uk forums, the headrest handles actually come off. I'm going to try to take them off, then remount them into the new set of headrests. If it end's up not working or looking crappy, I'll probably try disassembly the current factory headrests... -

Rear Seat DVD System
I'm putting in headrest screens next weekend; I've chosen a system with DVD players in each headrest along with you aux in/out's so that 2 seperate DVDs can be watched, or one headrest display movies on both. The system comes /w IR headphones and a transmitter built in to the LCD so that the... -

D Pillar Speaker wiring - '06 SE?
Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has pulled their D pillar trim on a non HSE model? A quick search didn't turn up anything helpful (disco.co.uk shows the question, but no answers). I'd like to retrofit some HSE style speakers back there if the effort isn't too great. From other threads... -

Canada - giving away free tires!
Thanks J - I'm not sure if I could even give these away! I had a similar experience trying to give away 17" 4/32nd GYs for a Mini Cooper "S". Eventually found someone who had tires that were even worse who swung by to pick 'em up. If you like, I can probably swing a little closer to your... -

Canada - giving away free tires!
This may be a bit of a long shot, but here goes... I picked up my LR3 just a few days ago and I'm replacing the tires with some good winter rubber (new rubber arrives next week, hopefully). The truck currently has Goodyear M&S tires that I frankly won't be putting back on the vehicle in the... -

Please assist a prospective LR3 owner.
Todd - what's your make of baby seats? I couldn't get two in locked down tightly side by side (ie side/center) when I did a test fit. Since we currently only have one child, I didn't focus on getting the smallest seat available (though we do have a seat in our Mini Cooper!). -

Please assist a prospective LR3 owner.
trackstar - I'm picking mine up today (06 SE V8 7 passenger!), so I can't comment directly on reliability, however the LR3 is supposed to be much improved over older Land Rover models. I did have a Land Rover Freelander, widely regarded to be one of the least reliable LRs to hit North America... -

What's in your garage?
I suppose to add my list... 2001 BMW 330 Ci (mine) 2005 Mini Cooper S (wife's) 2006 LR3 SE7 (probably mine when the fuel tank reads below 1/4... otherwise wife's! ;) ) -

specification on fuel to be used in the LR3
How about Dominican Republic? I've heard "DR" as a short form in the past, and as I recall high octane gas isn't readily available.... -

New owner (finally)!
nwoods - yep, I've done a few extended test drives and I immediately recognized some profound differences. Lyon - I checked out the Nokian's WRG2s (very tempting), but simply couldn't find any at a reasonable price (living in Canada, selection and availability sucks; current CAD dollar... -

relpacing the stereo
Since this is an old thread, here's some info for anyone still fishing about; I upgraded the head unit on our '02 NA spec Freelander without any difficulty, while maintaining steering wheel functionality. Here's a quick how-to (with parts list): 1) Buy new stereo! I chose a dual zone JVC...- gtc

New owner (finally)!
Well, after literraly months of dealing with selling our old Freelander and searching for a new LR3, we've finally purchased an 06 SE7. It's a well optioned Atacama Sand on Alpaca model loaded with everything but Navigation / 14 speaker stereo & HD packages, and I'm picking it up tomorrow... -

NEXEN Tires....
Hey BigArt - load index looks a little low... I believe you should be running at least 112, and these (at least via the auction) appear to be 108. Otherwise, I have no experience with them, so nothing else usefull to add! -

New to LR 3 with a few question.
Houm - I still don't have an LR3 yet (hopefully in a couple of weeks), however I did find that HDC worked quite well in our old Freelander. Granted there was no low range, and HDC certainly didn't absolve you from steering, but I never got much of a "sideways" feeling. I used it mainly on... -

Extended Warranty
The comment from "goinsurfin" a few pages back indicates that the sales rep claimed it was an exclusionary warranty. I'd get someone to check the actual wording to be sure... Basically your looking for wording to the effect that everything is covered exept a list of items (generally things... -

Extended Warranty
Some additional things to look at; here in Canada there are actually 2 LR Plans - the typical LR Assured (which has recently been renamed "LR Exclusionary"), and an LR CPO - I'm not sure if that's the exact name or not, but it was how the local sales manager referred to the plan. The two plans... -

Rear Audio Controls
From my interpretation of the manual, the rear controls must be set to the same input as the main audio system for them to control that source - and when controlling the source, they can't change to a different source, only raise/lower the volume or switch stations/tracks. I don't have my LR3... -

used LR3s for sale
If you read all the posts back-to-back, it does sound a little funny - just because the dealer name is mentioned so often. However, lots of people just get excited about new purchases; I didn't find the price to be "great" - perhaps good. I'm starting to see CPOs turn up with those options and... -

Congrats!!! I'm hoping to have mine in the next couple of weeks as well.... curious as well - model, options, colors? -

used LR3s for sale
Thanks for the offer - I'm awfully tempted, and may take you up on it! My wife wants us down to two cars for the next couple of years, so having just ditched our Freelander last week (for top dollar, no less!), I have to deal with the Mini. With the growing difference between the currencies... -

wheel alignment done now steering wheel crooked
If the LR3 is like most other vehicles, you need to remove the airbag first, then loosen, realign and tighten the steering wheel. It's actually a relatively easy process if you know how to remove the airbag cover, and can move the airbag without messing with the wiring; if you remove/damage the... -

used LR3s for sale
I've been looking for a few months now, and I'd agree with mustbeaudi - I have access to auction pricing (I can't buy, but I can look them up), and 20k is a reasonable price. I've been watching eimports4less as well, since they advertise in cars.com, autotrader and eBay, and their prices are...
