My mechanic Dennis from Tulla Car Care has just replaced the original land rover plugs LR000604 to the NGK V-Power 2683 after we had cylinder 1 misfire issues due to the insualator being cracked. Original plugs were only put on 40k ago as per schedule 144k but mechanic beleives they were already feathering out etc... The original plugs were branded Motorcarft and are probably the rebranded Motorcraft SP-498 which makes sense as I have the V6 petrol which is a ford engine. Car running beautifully again. Will repost if theer are any issues down the track.
The link below shows the different spark plaugs that can be used in the D3 V6 petrol models.
Land Rover LR3 Spark Plugs
The D3 bonnet guard will fit a D4.
Rear door ladder will also fit the D3 and D4, but not the RRS.
Lower control for the D3 and RRS are interchangable, but not with the D4.
The bushes that go into the lower control arms are interchangable though.
Front lower arms and rear upper arms from the RRS fit the D3.
There is an armoured D3 drop link, may be stronger than the normal one.
The steering wheels from the D4 and RRS are all interchangable, you need the correct clock spring to keep all features working, but can also add new ones.
Eg, my 05 D3 is getting the heated flappy paddle wheel from my mates 12 D4 as he is swapping for a 12 RRS. I will need the correct clock spring, modules but it will all fit and work.
The Bluetooth module from the D4 can go in the D3, this allows some of the newer smart phones to connect better.
4 pot Brembo's from the RRS fit the D3. As fitted to my own car. You need aftermarket 18s, or 19 6 spoke HSE alloys from the D3. The later HSE wheels need a small spacer to clear.
6 pot Brembo's also fit, you need 20s for clearance for them.
The RRS Supercharged brake master cylinder is also a good upgrade for better brake force if doing the above brake change.

Seems the new Defender steel wheels will fit a D3/4 and can bee seen from 8:10 in this video I put $2,000+ Defender Steelies on my Land Rover LR4 (Land Rover Owner's Day at Quail Lodge) - YouTube The LR4 owner does say the TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring Sys) wasn't compatible though.
