same EU that has introduced "naked streets" to our country - that being remove all signs, road markings and kerbs because it makes the streets a shared space and safer


next you'll be telling me no-LR stamp on the windscreen invalidates the wiper motor warranty

or that driving in the snow invalidates the insurance

or that nitrogen in the tyres makes a difference

or that you should use the handbrake at the traffic lights

Surely not a big job to re-connect the led wires to an ignition live?

Why when the option is there you just select it!!

They can be enabled to run when the ignition is on, i saw that option - explained WTF would you need that on! and moved on

Sorry I was under the impression the Op.wanted just the leds.on not the sidelights and rears.

On any car with drl's the rears are on.

I still dont know why - is the sun not working?

correct Ady

Rears are usually not on with DLR's

It's a visual thing for safety, bikes have been doing it for years and Scandinavian country's have had them as law since the 90's (why Volvo's and Saabs always have sidelights on with ignition) RRS gone

LED's look cool, they aint DRL.... if u want them on turn the headlught switch to the first position.

or buy the LR retro fit DRL's for the 10MY > cars from your dealer

£450 inc VAT - and you have to look hard to see them in the picture. Not sure these are the 1st thing that would alert a pedestrian that 2.6 tonnes of Land Rover is on a collision course.

I can't help but think that these should have been a standard feature, I do like the look of the car with them, but there's no way I'd spec them for £540  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior

GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring
GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it )

They probably should be a standard feature but I guess for as long as they can get away with not having them as standard they will because they'll be some people out there that will go for them.

i think there's some statistical evidence that says otherwise ============
