Hello Simon, Tyler & George, I’ve been watching all your defender videos for a while, this week I picked up my new 110 Hard Top, I ordered the Tow Eyes, Front/Rear mud flaps, reversing lights, wing mirror indicators, internal rear light, LR Dashcam, side net and some extra trim clips. Revived them all yesterday and have had great fun fitting it all yesterday and today. Your videos are great and service is 1st class. Great team, thanks for the great videos. I wish Tyler all the best with his Reserve Fireman training. Kind Regards LFP

Great summary! Do you know anything about the "Front Expedition Protection System"? It's not part of any of the packs and seems to be separate from the undershield.

Will definitely be interested in the head light protectors so will keep a lookout for those on your website - hope you enjoyed camping in Wales.

Hi Steve - I am still not really impressed with the clips - I ordered the plastic from the roof to see what it was all about - I can see what they are trying to do but it just does not work. I have made my own design for the clip now just need to source the net and frame - it is a really useful idea and it is really easy to see through when the boot is not loaded. There are a few other items missing - I think there will be a V2 of this one in a few months.

Simon's right - the clips are a bit odd but from my own experience they do work (not sure why exactly) and it makes a good barrier against loose items in the load area.

Really looking forward to (and ready to buy!) the front grill/logo bar cover and rear step, and back door table! Camping question: I am wondering if you have any issues with a low battery warning while camping? Nothing to do with a secondary battery, but it seems I need to keep my key in a faraday box and turn off the car's interior lights to allow the car to go into a proper sleep. Otherwise it seems to search for a key continuously. I know your car doesn't have keyless entry, so maybe that's not an issue. Have you used the Activity Key while camping (maybe that's the secret)? But trying to figure out this puzzle. And was wondering if Powerful UK might have a solution?

@L663

When we camped at the Ineos even it got a bit funny when we left - no low battery warning but i think that could have been the reason the camera system was playing up. I think the Pivi Pro system wants to boot up when you open the doors so its ready to go sooner and this may be a problem for camping. We did not have any issues in Wales but I think we did have a low battery at the Gaydon Show - the car doors were being opened a lot as people were looking around the car etc ( which I am happy about - thats why i took the car to the show ) I think it would be good if you could put the car into a "camping mode" on the app - this could be over ruled when you drive the car. I will add it to the ideas list - incase Land Rover ever want any ideas !

@@L663 Super insightful! Thanks for commenting. I think you're right about the PiviPro system. I noticed as long as I keep the light off, leave doors open and hide the key from any RFID signal - all is good. I forgot about your warning at the INEOS preview - and I too have had the same error pop recently when I was loading the car for a camping trip (many trips back and forth, with many door opens!). I did charge up the battery overnight and have had no problems since as long as I am mindful of the door/lights/pivi system. So... to your point, a "Camping" mode on the app would be BRILLIANT - and solve a problem since the car in adverts is clearly positioning as a great camping vehicle. I'll bring this up on the LR Advisory Board too! (Maybe someone will add it to a list) Thanks, Simon.

Helle Simon I have been watching for a long time. I have the same setup with the rooftop tent and extra Dometic Portable Battery installed. But still after 2 days of camping when you open the doors of the Defender each time the starting battery is draining out. Do you have a solution for this. I asked the dealer in Amsterdam but the don't want to install a master switch because they are afraid that the car is losing his basic settings. When you open the door all basic systems startup everytime and stay on for a couple of minutes. There is (so far I know) not a switch to put or to keep the car in sleeping mode. Now we start the engine every 2 days but that is not so friendly when you have neighbours at the campsite or are in the middle of the mountains. Hope you have the same problems and are looking for a solution. Pieter

@L663

You are 100% correct and we have the same problem. One idea I have passed to Land Rover is to have a "camping mode" on the app. The reason i think the car is configured this way is to ensure the electronics power up quicker but the cost is power consumption / battery life. I am trying to think how we could trick the car into behaving a different way. There may be a fuse we could disconnect - we could measure power consumption on all fuses and see which one is taking a lot of current - and then wire this to a remote switch / fuse for easy deactivation. I will add this to my list of videos to do...
