I have seen that on your pics it looks sweet. I have been tempted to copy the Idea but I won't be THAT GUY. :)

No, no. Please do copy it. I find it weird that this is the only product more recent than the Defender that doesn't say Land Rover or Range Rover on the back of it.

So you re saying we need to FIX a LR over-site on our vehicles?
is that cb antana mounted behind the light? That looks clean. Where did you mount the cb?
been thinking of putting one in.

Yes, I had this bracket made a while ago. It tucks under the rear tail light assembly:

I used the 12V accessory plug in the left rear compartment for power (switched with the key, dumb!), and mounted a Cobra WRX-75 (or whatever its called) under the front passenger seat.

Since then I've added a HAM radio

What's missing in this picture?

This is under the center row seat, and its removable. (Speaker and base unit for the radio)

This was a proof of concept mounting position. But it conflicts with the CB, so its been moved to the opposite side of the lift gate after this picture was taken.

He has one of the few metal spring, early 05 models brought to the US, IIRC.

No rear air in the other pictures, either.
