    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

    Apple sells both composite and component cables. The link I pasted above says "composite" right on the box and you can see the yellow, red, and white cables.

    ipod video with two drop-down screens

    btw, I asked this question in more detail on a car audio forum. I thought *just maybe* I get a better LR3-specific response here.

    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

    Here are the care instructions from the VentureShield literature they gave me: + Apply Plexus (Venture recommended) pastic cleaner per manufacturer's instructions with a clean microfiber towel or chamois. + Remove any foreign material (i.e., bugs, bird droppings, etc.) as quickly as possible in...

    Clear Bra

    I'm no expert, but I've never heard of anyone using a bug shield and a clear bra at the same time. The clear bra goes up about 9.5" from the front edge of the hood, so I would imagine it pretty much replaces the need for the deflector. Most places I've seen advertise doing the front of the...

    Clear Bra

    For what it's worth, the VentureShield has a lifetime warranty against cracking, bubbling, and yellowing.

    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...

    Looking for some LR3 buying advice

    I should probably mention that I did run a Carfax report on the LR3 I purchased and there was no airbag deployment or structural damage according to the report. It was just an accident reported by the Washington state police. After a little investigation, I discovered that the Washington state...

    Looking for some LR3 buying advice

    Well, here is my opinion... I had a compact SUV for a while.. My wife got into an accident at a stop sign in town. A small Nissan pickup hit the front side going about 15-20mph. There was no frame damage and no damage to the axle. We took it to the body shop and they replaced a few panels...

    What are the best tires for the LR3 ?

    dantheman is right, btw, the "tire specification" in the LR3 manual says to use (depending on the wheel size): 235/70 R17 H with a load index of 111 255/60 R18 H or V with a load index of 112 255/55 R19 H or V with a load index of 111

    What are the best tires for the LR3 ?

    okay, I guess I am looking at the "load index" and not the "load range" :\ http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=35 I have no idea what the difference is, but I haven't investigated it yet. I guess I'll do more tire research tomorrow.
