Found this on the Defender2 site and thought it might be of interest here?

"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" -is how fast you hit the fence.

With a new head torch arriving today, not sure what SWMBO would say if I bought another. It wouldn't be very nice.
Where does that fit in the D4?

Please let me know how you get on as got one on order and would like to know how you cut the panel - I am sure there will be some fitting instructions but always good to learn from someone that has actually done one "UNDERSTEER" ---is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.

Mine lives in the garage (since Land Rover told me it can't stay on the car), but that is a good point I had best look at the other junk I have in there Andy
Will it fit with rear aircon? Me thinks not.....
