Is it me or does this fridge thing not really work? Even on a 2 hour drive, 4 small bottles of water were only luke warm! Dont know why they dont feed it directly from the AC circuit and pump cold air into it like the LC and Patrol? OK so the climate here in UAE is extreme but I have to ask if its up to the job?

Can they be retro fitted? I've noticed a few sites where you can buy genuine ones. Is all the plus there? Live it like it's your last!

Does anybody know anything else about retrofitting the original fridge? (price, self fitting, ...).

Tahnks, AXL022.
I previously saw that posts, but I did not see if it is possible or not. (Electrical system is ready on a 2004 HSE?) When possible, where could I get the fridge?
Thanks,
Dimet.

It seems great at keeping drinks really cold if you put them in from the fridge or chiller cabinet at the garage... Not so good if put in warm at chilling them down  A Silver G4... Best of both worlds!

Date of birthday of my D3 : 01/09/2005 and i retrofitted the fridge with no problem.
I suppose all the wires are also present on yours.
I bought the fridge by my local dealer. Cheaper than the Ipod interface ! 2006 G4 Challenge V8 HSE - Vehicle Stage 3 & 4 - used by Gabriel Maldonado

Mine works very well. I keep V drink (or redbull) in it for those really long drives. Worked brilliantly in Spain last week with 39 degree temperatures. Lurvely cold drinks and chocolate.

Mine chills warm cans without a problem - takes about 30 mins drive time though. Doesn't sound like yours is working correctly xtc.
