D4 MY10 XS easy upgrades?
Hey all,
Calling on the Hive mind to stear me towards some upgrades as the possibilities seem endless!
I've had my MY10 XS for a year or two now and am looking at upgrades ...... especially as the wife hasn't said no yet!
So what's on people's lists or recommendations?

Mine came with an optional reversing camera which I wouldn't be without now particularly for hitching up with trailer and caravan. I got 4x4 info and timed climate enabled, the 4x4 info isn't as fun or useful as I thought it would be and for the few times a year I use it there is a trick way (need to search on here) of getting it visible for 'one off' uses. Timed climate would be on my lists again though having now had it.
Apart from that, unless you upgrade the interior to the superior leather with armrests or are interested in xenon headlights you're in the similar realm to any other spec really - so it's aftermarket sump guards, roof racks, RAI, or a remap.D4 XS, gone, much loved, never forgotten

Timed climate is a good point! Will have to read up on getting that sorted.
I've got the reversing camera already and it's proved a godsend when hitching up the horse trailer on my own.
Cheers for the tips!

Having activated the 4x4 info on mine, I would agree that it doesn’t get much use. I also activated timed climate, but have only used it once, as shortly after I fitted the remote and that is by far my most used and valued upgrade.
Another change I made only last year was to fit xenon headlights and they are certainly a huge improvement.Andy

Fridge - great for the summer
LED interior lights - much brighter
Indicator stalks with chrome bits - brings it up to date
Timed and remote climate - remote is used far more than preset timer
Altox unit will give you remote control of the FBH plus tracker !
Xenons... still miss them but can't justify the spend..
