LR3 Boot lighting looking to rear hatch closed 0468.JPG
Boot lighting, looking to rear - hatch closed 539 viewsView shows the lights mounted in the rear on an early spring day.

In operation, the lights are tilted so that they shine downwards. The lights are mounted high enough up that one cannot see the LEDs from the front thru the rear view mirror; also the LEDs are so directional, that no light is thrown on the side glass.

Each assembly contains 15 LEDs, however the reflector is such that the LEDs appear to double.

LR3 Boot lighting panel on floor finish side up 0463.JPG
Boot lighting panel, finish side up 307 viewsThe above jpg shows the two 15 LED light assemblies as well as the SPST rocker switch mounted beside the W5W Land Rover supplied light.

The reality is that with the recent development of LED lighting that can replace a W5W T10 bulb, one can almost achieve the same results just by installing a LED bulb within the factory light.

LR3 Boot lighting panel on floor wiring side up 0461.JPG
Boot lighting panel, wiring side up 279 viewsThis shows the back side of the plastic cover panel on which the two LED lights are mounted.

Also of note is the SPST rocker switch to switch the new lights off independent of the the Land Rover W5W light.

The new light pair will only power up if the Land Rover light is powered and hence dims and automatically goes off along with the Land Rover light.

The Black wire is ground, the Purple wire is +12VDC.

LLumar Auto Specs Global AIR80 Air Blue 78~0.pdf
LLumar AIR80 Air Blue 78 windscreen film IR reduction metal oxide339 viewsThis pdf summarizes the characteristics of the various types of window glass film available from LLumar. www.llumar.com

I had the Air 80 metal oxide sort of clear film, (windshield film they call it), installed on the front driver and passenger side windows to reduce the Infra Red penetration and hence heating effect on the front occupants. The film is barely visible from either inside or outside, however there is a noticeable reduction in heat penetration when sitting inside. In short, my arm does not get cooked.

Cell phone and GPS etc seem unaffected by the metal oxide film.

I also had the film installed on the three sun roof portions as well.

Littelfuse Add A Circuit MINI and ATO style FHM02FHA02.pdf
Littelfuse Add-A-Circuit MINI and ATO style data sheet148 viewsPDF from Littelfuse showing both the MINI and ATO style of fuse holders. The 3 uses the MINI size of fuse. The MINI Add-A-Circuit can be inserted in place of one of the existing fuse panel MINI fuses. The removed fuse is then inserted into the lower slot of the Add-A-Circuit and a second fuse in the second slot to protect the device that you are adding. The Add-A-Circuit is designed for a max of 10 amps on the second load, and I guess maybe the original circuit as well. 31 Mar 2010

Main Battery showing cable around corner 0436.JPG
Main Battery showing aux cable feed running off positive battery post.771 viewsThe black wiring loom around the battery cable to the aux battery was a part provided with the Traxide kit. My goal was to run the cable low enough such that the battery box cover would go back on as previous.

Note the hole drilled in the side of the battery box such that the new cable could thread thru to allow the battery box top to still fit the same as prior to the addition of the cable to the auxiliary battery.

Aux Battery showing ground cable bolt "upside" down 1568 viewsIn order to obtain sufficient height clearance to get the plastic cover back on, I had to install the ground cable to the underside of the battery post connector.

Note the battery vent hose, (approx 5 ft required) is run down into where the windshield washer fluid container is located. There is not much electrical or metal in that area to be corroded by battery gas plus the open end of the vent hose tends to be protected from dirt and stays clean as well.

LR3 Rear Differential cutaway with E-Locker 1.jpg
Rear Differential cutaway with E-Locker 1199 viewsThis jpg is from the link below.

There are another ten or so cutaways plus a whole file group showing a 2005 LR3 sectioned for the 2005 Chicago Auto show. Each jpg has an enlarge function to the bottom right of a main picture.

On one jpg you can see right into the stepper motor.

http://www.cutawaycreations.com/cutaways.php?project=land-rover-electronic-rear-differential#/IMAGES/car4/images/image1.jpg

Both the front and rear differentials are manufactured by Dana Spicer in the UK. Dana calls them a Clamshell design.

Aerial Fin Image_20061020 (2)~0.pdf
Fin cell phone aerial drawing190 viewsThe factory aerial for the factory NAV / GPS on my 2005 HSE is within the high mounted stop light lens at the top of the upper hatch door. I do not have the factory installed phone kit, and as such, do not have the fin installed; instead there is just a plastic blanking insert to fill the cell phone aerial wiring hole in the metal portion of the roof; hence this requirement for an "external" cell antenna. For those that do have the fin on their glass roof, the fin is screwed on to a glued on plastic gasket, (sort of), and not bolted thru as per the metal roof 3's.23 Mar 2010
LR3 Battery Charger Grill View 0481.JPG
Battery Maintainer pigtail sticking out of Grill723 viewsThis is all you see when everything is put back together - just the pigtail and Weather Pack blanking plug. Most often, I have it all tucked back behind the grill.

In winter, there may be a second cord hanging out as well - the 120 VAC power cord for the engine block heater, a tea kettle like element inserted in the engine block. NAS petrol V8's do not have the Fuel Burning Heater, (FBH), installed, but instead in cold area markets have the block heater element assembly available as a dealer installed option. There is an argument to say that the heating element is factory installed in all cold climate V8 gasoline engines, however the appropriate power cord is not. If true, this means that all one needs to purchase is the area specific power cord and plugging in / attachment to the engine block located block heater.

As such, you will often see a conventional 120VAC three prong power plug hanging loose out of the grill of most vehicles here in the wintertime. In summer, most drivers tuck the plug back behind the grill as it is no beauty mark.

LR3 Battery Charger switch box_plug_CTEK charger 0479.JPG
Battery Maintainer switching box plug and CTEK Multi US 3300 charger. 703 viewsThe CTEK Multi US 3300 maintainer is just sitting there for the picture. In addition to topping up both batteries, the CTEK can provide power such that if the batteries were completely dead, there would be power to the door locks and hence, one could most likely still gain access via the remote once the starting battery charged up a bit.

The Land Rover recommended method is via the hidden key hole which is mechanical, however that presumes the mechanism is not frozen from lack of use. As such, the manual lock should be exercised at least once a year to ensure that it still functions.
The blanking plug sitting on top of the plastic box is of the GM Weather Pack series. That is what I like to use for vehicle wiring that is subject to moisture, (or not).

LR3 Battery Charger switch box and connector 0478.JPG
Battery Maintainer switch box and connector 716 viewsThe Hammond box contains a DPDT toggle switch with centre off. The Positive and Negative from each battery feeds to the switch. Depending on the setting of the toggle, (full left, full right,or centre off),the respective batteries connect into the pigtail that can stick out thru the grill when one wishes to connect the charger.

This allows one to charge each battery independently via a suitable battery maintainer. I use a CTEK unit that feeds a maximum of 3.3 amps at 14.4 or 14.7 VDC, depending upon setting. The wiring therefore allows for a slow recharge of either of the batteries separately if either one requires such.

FASKIT on end view 859 viewsEnd and rear view of the FASKIT. Yellow lines are as shipped for hooking to the air supply; one line to valve/filler and other is to gauge. I will modify the arrangement to delete one of the yellow lines such that gauge line plugs into where the second yellow line is right now,(will be only one yellow tube), and then the air source line will plug into the port controlled by the valve, (hidden in this view but visible in other view). When white valve is in the ON position, gauge will read air source pressure, and be available to supply air to any of the selected four air springs. When valve is closed, the gauge will show individual air pressure in each of the air springs when a jumper is run between the gauge Schrader valve and the appropriate air spring Schrader valve. 23 Mar 2010

LR3 plastic cover and box back on in front of rad 0500.JPG
Plastic cover and Box back on in Front of Radiator 636 viewsThe wiring loom is below the cover - nothing is crushed or distorted and all fits back together OK. The black plastic box with the DPDT, (centre OFF), toggle switch is to tie the battery maintainer to each of the two batteries per the Traxide Dual battery install. I can also get power to the power door locks if all fails.23 Mar 2010

Wiring (tubing) loom at left headlight showing FASKIT panel 582 viewsThis shows the wiring (tubing) loom and FASKIT panel mounted to left wing. The loom moves a a couple of inches (50mm) towards the bottle once the headlight is put back in as there is not enough free space for the loom as located. The FASKIT panel is just visible at the top left corner of the picture. 23 Mar 2010
LR3 19 mm wire loom in space in front of rad 0492.JPG
19mm wiring loom in trough behind bumper and in front of rad790 viewsThe 19mm wiring loom is large enough that a maximum of six 6mm air lines can be fished thru as required. The loom runs from the FASKIT panel located in the engine compartment behind the left front headlight, down and across in front of the rad and then down to the front axle valve block located behind and below the right fog light.23 Mar 2010
LR3 wire loom exiting right fog light 0495.JPG
Wiring, (tubing), loom exiting temporarily from the front right fog light.567 viewsThe front axle air valve block is located just behind and below the fog light. Access to the valve block is by removing the right front fender liner, (or the bumper). The FASKIT lines are attached to the left and right front air spring lines at this location; also compressor air is taken from this location as well. Cutting the lines at as few different locations makes it easier to find leaks at a later date. As above, five 6mm air lines run from the FASKIT panel to the front axle air valve assembly and run within the loom. Two pair of the lines are for control of the air springs, and the fifth line taps the air supply at the valve block assembly off the compressor. This will be the air source line rather than tapping in directly to the high pressure air tank. 23 Mar 2010
