About ARB working on D3 accessories. Apparently they are getting delivery of one very shortly to start accessorising it. From what I was told a bullbar is on the agenda- don't know what else.

A snorkel would be good. Safari 4*4 didn't have it on their radar when I emailed them a couple of months ago but I reckon they might have changed their minds by now.

My guess is they are seeing how quickly and how well they sell. No point spending millions on development if no one wants them. But as you say they will soon get on the D3 band wagon. Matt

I would have though as the bonnet comes ontop of the guard.. rather than next to it like the Disco 1 and 2... a Snorkel might be hard to design... I can see how it will work and still allow the bonnet to open..;-(

Hi Chris ... why don't you just ask for the "G4 Pack" ... :wink: .. looks very sweet to me .. especially the roof rack with lights. It's even got a winch .. no heavy ARB bullbar needed [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

hang on, I thought that there was going to be a factory snorkel available like the ones the G4 discos are using?

Bigger pic :wink:

Is the G4 pack available in Aus? It seems silly to spend all this money providing vehicles for the G4 and then not milking it for all its worth selling kits to people who like the look of them. Matt

**Phoenix** · 12th April 2005, 09:31 AM

You would think so, but the only people to capitalise on the G4 stuff, were the individual managacturers like the guys who do the roof racks.

when the LR3 was still in the "Coming soon" bracket, and details were leaking out, I thought that there was a factory snorkel slated as it would be an easily bolted on due to the new air vent design?

Are the bits and pieces avaliable on the aftermarket scene if you want to make your D3 like like a G4 Disco? Matt

**Phoenix** · 12th April 2005, 09:55 AM

AFAIK yes.

LROI is building up a freelander to be just like a G4 flander, and i've seen other replicas. you just need to know who makes what and get it. in some cases you can't get the exact replacement, but you can get pretty close.

Hi,

Newby here.

What I'd like to see available is the Wrangler 18" muddies. Have a close look at the tread pattern on the G4 website.

Cheers.

ECB have bars available for the D3.

You can't afford a D3 this lifetime and already you are worried about accessorising it :?: :roll: ---- fair enough :!: [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

I don't think this is an exact quote. I believe the wood was yellow. Oh and in the quote you have from the last lines of the poem "I" should be written twice... let's see... oh, yes here we are:

Robert Frost (1874–1963). Mountain Interval. 1920.

The Road Not Taken

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth; 5

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same, 10

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back. 15

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference. 20
