Can you please tell me how to take the 3rd brake light off?

I have the same spoiler as you and need any help you got on how to remove the orginal light, install spoiler, than get the light to work again.



Fantastic conversion, is that bonatti grey too?

I was searching Google.co.uk and found a few pinouts for the 2010 head and tailights, if you get them working please let me know that as well!

Sorry for the lack of updates. I was away for a few weeks getting married. Now that I am back in town I had time to go to the body shop to pick up my ride. The car is going back to SP Engineering next week to get put back on the dyno to see how much power the truck makes now. Engine wise we have added port and polishing of the supercharger unit, smaller pulley, and a Magnaflow catback exhaust. I hope to see about a 50HP increase.

The Overfinch bottom front bumper grill needs a little bit more adjustment but I am very happy with how the entire conversion came out. The only thing I could not figure out was how to get the auto leveling to work, but its not that much of a big deal for me except for the blinking yellow headlight light on my dash.

The total downtime of the truck was about 3 months. Most of the time was spent waiting for the Overfinch parts to come from United Kingdom and trying to figure out the wiring to properly fit the 2010 headlights to my 2006. Anyone with the pre 2006 will have a much easier time with the headlights since they don't have the auto leveling function.

In the end I think it was worth it. I can't believe how much newer and more modern the truck looks with just new headlight, body kit, front and side grills, and new tail lights. The cars feels faster and the exhaust note has become more throaty but not annoying. I plan on keeping the truck for another 2 years before I trade it in for something else so I will definitely have time to enjoy the new body.

Yeah I wanted something that was clean and sophisticated just like the Range Rover brand.

Mods can you move this into the correct forum now. I guess there is now a Land Rover section in Teamspeed British.
