    Finally sick of the anemic factory sub...

    So, I replaced it with an line level to RCA converter (Rockford 360) and a Punch 500w mono block amp. Speaker wires back to (2) 10" Punch drives in sealed enclosures. Total over kill, but the factory sub-level adjustment works perfect and sounds great with all types of music. Felt...

    Just got rejected for VA inspection for Lights and Brakes

    At first I thought he was complaining about too many LED tail lights, but they were fine. They dont like the offroad lights on the A-frame. Some law about too many operable lights. Crap law. They want me to cover them or cut the wires. Honestly they are more ornamental than useful. Anyone...

    Does your LR3 have 9 or 10 FM presets

    Really 18 or 20 presets with FM(A) I suppose. Its not supper important, but I had my stereo unit replaced for faulty CD ejecting and the new one does not have a FM preset on the "0" button. I would have sworn that my old one did. Just curious if my memory is incorrect. Bonus question -...

    Joined the 'flatbed' club

    Suspension Fault that would not go away. Rear axle would go up/down normally, but the front would hardly rise. Maybe an inch off the bumpstops initially, but it would sink back down. Especially slumped over on the front passenger side. Under warenty - The dealer thinks its the...

    Drop down DVD player

    I sure this has been done 100 times, but I thought it worth mentioning the Farenheit MD-880CMBG (Beige) is a good fit in the tight roof space of a LR3 with rear climate controls. The color is a better match than the iPhone would have you believe, I thought it was near perfect in daylight. I...

    poor sirius satellite reception

    Im not impressed with the sound quality, but maybe that was a symptom of a bigger problem. My sat radio cuts out on hilly roads, in the rain, under trees, even under a small flock of birds. On a recent outing with 2 jeeps (one with after market siruis and one with 2009 factory sirius) mine was...

I just picked up a 2006 LR3 Se7 White on Alpaca this week. It included Sirius, bluetooth cold climate, and...
