Wales 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Bonatti GreyDiscovery 3
Just got home with my HSE

Absolutely love it but a couple of niggles

Puddle lights don't work
Rear DVD player works fine but the lights on the side don't light up
Steering wheel no lights on ? Should there be ?

Other than she's beautiful,Really enjoyed the drive from London to Cardiff.

Puddle lights... prise them out with an electricians or similar small bladed screwdriver and check the bulb Wink
Then go online and buy what I did - replacement Landrover 'ghost lights' on all four doors and impress the hell out of any passengers when the doors are opened during the following dark months Laughing

When you change out the puddle light bulbs you may as well change the rest of the car to LEDs, incl the sidelight bulbs. Just used up a couple of boxes of these and happy bunny with the result: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01EQU...&psc=1
