    Central Locking Latches - Rover 75 Compatible?

I appreciate that you have changed the battery; however it may some corrosion on the contacts in the fob. does it do it if you use the other fob ? Not sure why a Rover 75 door lock assembly should...

    HID units in standard headlights

    like the way it states: The Department for Transport takes the view that it’s not legal to use lighting kits to convert standard halogen headlamps to HID xenon headlamps there is no argument, simple fact without having to wade through the whole document

    Indicator wiring and Amber led strobe?

    depends on what kind of strobe you are thinking of tbh if it's the low cost chinese ones from ebay, they strobe unit is actually just a bank of amber LED's, then these would be ok, but you would have to put an intermediate relay in, not because of the load as it's relatively small, but to...

    Horn not working

    also, have you changed the radio recently ? on some versions, bizarrely, the earth for the horn button or relay was routed through the radio. when it was changed, the horn stopped working, but usually not noticed for some time after. when you fit a new radio, you don't think to test the horn !

    My First potential Freelander, your thoughts?

    the key issues are: 1) 2wd mode. many reasons are often given for this, usually "fuel economy". This is usually tosh, and the main reason for converting it to 2wd is that the VCU is goosed. Depending on how and what went on, this also has implications for damage to the IRD. The VCU is...
