Love the look, but can't see spending $150 or so for 2 reflectors, since they would come from U.K.. I am going to try some 3m reflector tape on my Orange reflectors. I plan to just apply the tape to the reflector, trim and tuck in sides, but may have to remove reflector and wrap the tape around edges and remount reflector to keep tape in place. Of course, if it looks crappy it will come back off. Any thoughts?

 

Hey, if it works and looks good, Bonus!

 

Today was maintenance day…ZF transmission service…rear diff fluid change…oil and filter…PA state inspection…now all maintenance is up to date!

 

I wouldn't take a red dye pen anywhere near ivory leather. You'll end up with pink seats!

 

i'm gone try to get 1 cause the wheels do indeed really set the look off.Everybody seems to notice the wheels 1st for some reason.I may have over done it with the wheels making them look super cool😅😎 I do need to get better lighting so I can post more to show how nice they look.I'll post more pics soon whenever it's a nice bright sunny day outside and not close to dawn or a sunset

 

Washed and polished. Also did the "vinyl Wrap" on the reflectors.

where you take it to get that kind of maintenance done?

 

Dougherty Automotive in West Chester, PA. Bill Dougherty was on Roger Penske’s team when he won the Indianapolis 500…they know their way around performance cars…

 

Finally got around to reprogramming the garage transceiver

 

This week I popped into a dealer and had the AUX port enabled, using the SDD diagnostic tool.

Then had a Bluetooth system installed onto the AUX port. All neat and out of the way.

Now can use my phone and stream music through the cars sound system.

 

What all was involved and how much did it cost if you don't mind saying?

 

I hope it was one of the easy to link garage door openers. Mine garage door opener is one of the finikey ones that requires an extra step in the Jag and Land Rover. So naturally there are 99 videos on how to program it....and 1 to program it so it works.

 

Wasn't too bad
according to the manual I had to use the rolling code option and pick up the signal off the actual box not the remote transmitter nevertheless it's done now 👍👍👍

 

Today I removed the glove box and refitted the cable by drilling the plastic and using a bolt with locking washer to hold the cable in place. Nice soft opening again.

 

Hi

The Jag dealer was kind enough to enable the AUX free of charge. He simply connected his SDD diagnostics machine and enabled the feature. It took no longer than 5 minutes.

I then installed a Sony Bluetooth which operates through the AUX port - so you have to be in AUX to make/receive calls and stream music. Cost of this was around ZAR4,000 = approximately USD250. The control knob for the Bluetooth is mounted with double sided tape on the driver's armrest just rearward of the window controls.

While I was at it I had rear and front high definition cameras installed - really helps with parking - they are really small and almost not noticeable. A small 4" screen sits out of the way on top of the dash tucked up against the A pillar. They installed the cameras with a relay, which allows both cameras to use one channel. The 4" screen always shows front, but when in reverse, the screen switches to the rear view, with guide lines for parking. A switch was installed (hidden) under the dash so that I can switch both cameras off, for instance when on a long journey. This lot cost around ZAR5,000 (USD312).

 

I replaced the standard foglights with new units containing angle ring DRLs and foglights, all LED. Also put the winter wheels on. The PO had obviously used a tire firm that used an impact wrench, so one of the lugs was stuck. When I tried to get it loose the chrome cover separated from the lug so I had to strip it off before I could use an 18 mm socket on the remaining lug and a BIG handle, which worked. I found a set of 10 used lugs online at a breaker and ordered these.

 

I certainly hope you didn't order the crappy OEM two-piece lug nuts again. There are several threads in here about those. Toyota one-piece stock nuts fit perfect and last forever.

 

I have read these threads and as far as I understand the OEM lugs work fine as long as you use hand tools rather than an impact wrench. Anyway, the lugs were just SEK 100/USD 11 for ten from the breaker.

 

Bought one....now the wait starts for delivery.
