You will need the D4 rear light guards as although the D3 will physically fit their contours do not fit the D4 lamp locations. E.g. the indicators are in the wrong place.
I bought mine from Craddock for a shade under £200. Irritatingly, I noticed that the D3 ones are really cheap and the D4 ones are not!!! Be ready to drill your chassis too... LR3 MY05 TDV6 2.7 HSE - 130k

Thanks for that GG
I wouldn't pay that much never no no I like a bit of a bargain and don't mind paying out for something reasonable but that price to me is a joke.
Couldn't afford it anyway pete truckle

I'd be interested to know which side repeaters you bought. I had a pair 3D printed by someone I found on facebook that was printing Disco 2 versions and as he used me as a guinea-pig he gave them to me. They're pretty good and I know he's selling them now - must give him a plug sometime. The only other ones I found had the manufacturer engraved into them - free advertising and totally spoils the look if you ask me.
Found the receipt from March this year: £150.25 ex VAT. That was the cheapest an extended web search revealed. Couldn't even find a discount code anywhere...
Still, you'll be nose heavy if you don't fit those rears, you gotta finish the job now man. They do add a certain something to the look of the car 8) LR3 MY05 TDV6 2.7 HSE - 130k

I’m currently tempted by the tuff rok side repeater guards, actual metal rather than butter 3D printed and a descent price, only thing putting me off it drilling the holes in the wing to fit

Yep, those are the ones. Don't want the wording all over, I'm a clean-look kinda guy when it comes to this sort of thing although I haven't completely debadged the boot yet!
Top Tip though, neither did I so I used the tape you get with reg plates and it sticks just fine. I know my buttery ones will be lighter but I'm still pretty confident it would work! LR3 MY05 TDV6 2.7 HSE - 130k

I agree with not having manufacturer names sticking out in your face and I have just ordered the printed ones on Facebook after a chat with the guy,they look good and a great price.
I spoke to him because i ordered a pair of black metal ones that looked the mutts nuts from some land rover website but they wouldn't fit over my repeaters they were to short on the internal length and they cost £40 round about Xmas time.
My side repeaters are the progressive type,same size as the Land Rover originals (which I have kept) but after market ones ,somehow I got a pair for a tenner off ebay ,never seen them advertised since.
The guy on Facebook sent me a schematics drawing with the measurements so I know his will fit.
I will put up the drawing on here once I have contacted him to see if that would be OK.(is that allowed )
And I definitely agree about getting the rear lights done as well because in my opinion it's a half job by not finishing what was set out to do originally.
Regards
