Hi all- new to you forum after picking up a D3 SE td6 yesterday. Drives well but after my last car I found my reversing skills with out a camera are pathetic and hooking up the trailer is very easy with a rear camera. The GPS and phone connection with the old SUV ( Lexus) was pretty handy even a little off road tracks covered in the places it could get to. Asked at Lance Dixson Doncaster who suggested Freeway Car Audio
Freeway Car Audio | GPS Navigation | Sales & Installation | Melbourne (http://www.freewaycaraudio.com.au/gps_navigation.html)
they suggested about 3k installed for the unit pictured which has GSP, Bluetooth and a reversing camera. Asked at Auto Barn who quoted a lot less for a difernet brand (under 2k)
Has anyone fited a GPS, camera and phone in a D3 and how has your expiriance been with it?
I have been looking at a discovery for about three years. Got talked into waiting for a new D4 but pulled out of that idea as soon as I read about the wheel size issues with the d4- Thanks in advance :)

G'Day James,
Welcome to the Land Rover fraternity and congratulations on your purchase! :cool: The TDV6 SE is a great vehicle. What year of manufacture did you buy?
You most likely have searched various threads but visit here D3 / D4 Zone - Australian Land Rover Owners (http://www.aulro.com/afvb/d3-d4-zone/) - a wealth of information.
Hopefully this search result link works. There are a few previous posts on what D3 owners have done or considered. http://www.aulro.com/afvb/search.php'searchid=1603516
I would suggest posting a link to your question in the GPS section in the D3-D4 Zone.
Can give you some ideas on servicing and see if I can get a yellow sticker on the back of your shiny D3! :p PM me re servicing if you like.

P.S. Oliver likes my D2, had his first off road outing up around Powelltown on Saturday. Not bad for a 11 month old.

Yellow Sticker = LROCV Club Sticker (Land Rover Owners' Club of Victoria
I'll PM you about it.
Even sitting stuck in a hole on Burns Tk, Powelltown on Saturday for 30+ mins was ok with him. Bit of shovel work and a gentle tow backwards got me out. :angel:
