Outstanding work to complete!!!!
Jobs left to complete!!!
1. Gvif installation to run five camera's two in bumper as per latest lux vision system and two in the mirrors with the reversing unit I already have.
2. Blind spot sensors and control units to power up the new mirror tell tale indicators when car in blind zone, got a kit need to fit into rear wheel arches lowers to allow them to be hidden
3. Twin turbo conversion, almost ready, got some hose adapters and some vacuum piping and electrical system to work out the fitting is almost ready bar top alternator retaining point on a 3.0 lt to be worked out and pic's would be great!!!
4. Wade sensor system to be built for the new mirror sensors that are fitted, it will only be audible obviously, need to tie into raised suspension mode I think
Hummm what else have I got too do yet.....
5. Fit xenon fog light system to replace standard bulbs, got a kit specific for the type of bulbs with diffusers to ensure legal compliance :
6. Coming soon Griffin Discovery 3 full exhaust systems group buys!!!!, also twin turbo conversion system once designed....... Yes I am at it again!!
7. Second attempt at getting powerful enough motor to drive rear spare wheel winch down and fully up again.FFRR SC 4.2
Surely the wade sensors are bouncing off the top of the water to guage depth, rather than the bottom - so the distance where a warning is required is fixed?Mark.

Wade mode I believe on the new model is in off-road hieght mode, this is for the chassis parts , I.e. Engine etc that don't move they just get wet. Yes sensor detect surface distance from the mirrors, rigging a rear parking module to power the two sensors up FFRR SC 4.2

James at Griffin is busy designing the downward pointing rear cans at the moment, should be here next week for fitting on as she is, bonus is it will also allow the D4 down-pipe integration without changing the mid to rears sections.
This will fit the Non DPF D4's that are out there alsoðŸ‘FFRR SC 4.2

VERY nice....but you have made the mistake of falling in love with your car. Did that myself with an E Type years ago, dare not count up what I spent
Still if you have the cash, then it's up to you how you spend it. Nice job though.
One final question, have you ever thought about a girlfriend, or if married, a mistress, could be cheaper. In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Down and out's Velar

Hi there, was after a bit of help. I've just put a D4 rear bumper on my D3, complete with D4 parking sensors, however, as you already know, the connectors are different. How did you sort this out ?
Cheers Steve.
