Towing Electrics
Just had a quote from a main dealer to supply and fit VPLAT0136 (towing electrics) to my 2014 Disco 4. Does that sound reasonable?

Ebay is our friend.
Installation is easy and P&P. I installed mine in spring, 2 hours job
that's about right for the dealer. I paid £220 last year when I got mine. I did challenge them but the parts department where charging about £160 for the electrics

You dont need to have them activated they will work without activation. However if they are not activated the rear parking sensors will operate when in reverse and if you use the terrain response to change ground type the suspension will still change height automatically, if the electrics are activated neither of the above will happenMY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange
