Do you mean on the back of the mirror (opposite side to the glass)? You might be looking at the light sensor - is it auto dimming? D3 TDV6 S 2005 - TorqTune, Privacy Glass, Remote FBH, 19" HSE Alloys, Boot liner, retrofit F&R PDC, RAI
Defender 90 Truck Cab TD5 2003 - Ifor Williams back, alloys (SWMBO's toy - well, one of them )

Wasn't there also supposed to be some cool downlighting from the underside of the mirror? I've never seen any ('06 SE). 06 TDV6 SE Tonga Green
Mantec Plate (with three "dings"), BCB rope, Hidden winch (hidden in garage...), Webasto timer (in box), TorqTuned ((tee hee)²), Origin b2 (in case), Traffic master jam warner (in expectation), FT8800, Motorola GM360, INTEK H-520+ (in a tangle)

Correct - see attached blurry cellphone pic - looks like an LED for the HomeLink set-up, or maybe Night Illumination

Yeah, what's all this about? That mirror is about 3 times as chunky as mine. And with buttons??? Preposterous!

Yep, LR give the lazy American market a built-in garage door opener, actually three, on the rear view mirror.
You 'teach' the system with your existing remote(s) - then you just press the appropriate button on the mirror to open your garage door when you get home to the ranch.
Here in CA - garage door openers are pretty much standard issue - no getting out and actually lifting the door by yourself!
Never thought that the Disco3 in Blighty wouldn't have such a feature!!
What else do I have on my LR3 that you don't get in the UK I wonder?
I assume you have the 50" HD Plasma TV the same, and the built-in burger microwave and hot dog dispenser? 08 LR3 SE - 02 D2 SE7
