    2017 Discovery Td6 HSE Lux Waitomo Grey

    No ideas on firewall access on this truck, that’s why I’m going wireless. I will probably go with a trigger 4, it allows control of 4 circuits. On the attached pic, the wireless controls (red) circle goes in cab, yellow control box goes under bonnet and connects to auxiliary lights. It also offers Bluetooth control via phone app. I used a similar control on my RR, and it worked great. No fishing wires inside cab.

    2018 Discovery Si6 HSE Lux Santorini Black

    I just purchased a wireless lightbar kit myself over the weekend, so hopefully no warranty issues as not tapping into or splicing the original LR wiring.
    (Will look at piggy back fuses if needed).
    Mind you the 1, 2, 3, 4 looks just like the selector options on my 8 track player. Love the retro look Thumbs Up Rolling with laughter

    Here's the website for the light mounts. I like the Front Runner roof rack and the light bar up there too. They also offer Compomotive 18" wheels which they say will allow fitment of 65-series tires. Pics also show the hidden winch tray.

    A little birdie told me they're working on rock sliders for the D5. Cool

    Brackets are mounted, I have not installed lights yet as I wanted to check clearance of light body. When I get time I will try to do a walk through with pictures, There are no instructions available from vendor. Some minor cutting of plastic guards behind grill on each side was required.

    Ring in the UK have sold a magic box for years (I used on on my D3).
    Fob type switch sticks on the dash.

    As I remember I had to splice in to the side light fed to act as a sender. Lamps can only be on when you have other lights on that way. The box was mounted in the spare battery box so we can’t do that out of sight but loads of mounts to use in the D5...

    I do like these lamp brackets though..

    Gidday from Australia, Rockcypher. I was checking your photos out. Am I right in saying you have the electric shutters/louvres on your radiator? If so, did you have to mod the brackets at all to get them to fit?

    The only ones I can get over here aren't suited for the shutters.
