Hi All,

I am an avid reader of this forum and appreciate the breadth of experience of all contributors.

I have read through many threads about the installation of a Glind or equivalent hot water shower, however I cannot find any reference and pictures of an installation in a D4 (mine is MY13). There are many comments against such a project but I am interested to know if anyone has it installed in a D4 and how well it is working. I had a Twine shower installed in my Patrol and it worked very well. Now I would like to install in the D4 if possible. I already have the Traxide dual battery system installed so not much room apparent under the bonnet.

Any comments for or against would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Bob

They don't work on the D3/D4/RRS because of the way the cooling system works, it doesn't produce a constant flow of hot water, basically it doesn't work from the D2 on models with Climate control.

Been there, tried that:(

Works great on the standard 300Tdi Defender, D1 V8, RRC and also the standard TD5 Defender.
