    Just a quick add on to this thread...

    Does anyone have a picture of the actual switch & it's location for the factory driving lights on a D4?

    I want to keep the inside of the car looking as factory as possible, for the time being anyway...

    A part number would be super dooper as well...

    The D4 driving light switch fills the cavity in the console - on the other side of the EPB. (I use that space for the keyfob, so don't want the D4 switch).

    Sorry, there is no part number - you have to buy the whole D4 driving light kit which comes with the switch and loom!

    I was told buy a guy on the disco3.co.uk site that you can however, buy the Freelander 2 switch - which looks exactly the same as the D4 switch. He didn't have the part number and I haven't had the time to ring a dealer and ask. I was planning on installing that part on the lighting switch cluster - where they should have put it in the first place!

    Cheers,
    Rob

    Attached is a copy of the install instructions for the LR kit which shows the switch location. Reading through the instructions I'd be glad to do it in the suggested 4.5 hours!

    So approximately how much would it cost for labour and wiring kit (excluding the actual lamps) to supply and fit the LR kit?

    Labour would be around the $500 mark, and I would put the kit at around $800.

    You need to buy the whole lot, including lamps, as far as I know.

    But, you could always on-sell the lamps to get some $$$ back.

    The "book" time is 4.5 hours, but looking at what is involved, like has been said, I think that might be a bit conservative for someone that doesn't work on them every day, and have the inside knowledge as to how everything in the car clips together.

    Now, all that said, I am working on "plan B" which is a nice set of Fyrlyt's, and either make up my own harness, or get one off the shelf & modify it. The plan also makes better use of the factory switch location, to enable others to be put in there as well.
