Just had Lightforce lights fitted to my D4. Both me and the fitter could not find anywhere to put the switch.. Any ideas?

You can get the proper driving lights switch from the UK. I got mine from Britcar. Part numbers are :-
VU8502860 Switch Assy G
XK8500080 Spot Lamp Switch Disco 3
This will give you the new switch and the surround for the area it fits in. It also includes the fitting instructions.

The switch goes in the little storage space to the left of the gear stick - where I put my keys. One less storage spot and leaves the deep hole beside terrain response where you can put the keys. :-\

Opposite the park brake is the OEM auxiliary light switch which on the D3 is up on LHS of the steering wheel. I have no idea why on the D4 they moved it.

Maybe put the switch up near the rear view mirror, where the sunroof switch would be? Just a thought.
Cheers

I have an illuminated 'ARB style' rocker switch cut in to the knee board (along with my compressor switch) just underneath the main headlight knob.
Regards Trif.
