Humm just took a bit of a gamble, spend £32 inc postage for a set of rear light protectors, from rimmerbros they say they are the original ones that seem to still be sold for over £140 in some places, so worth a punt for £32 they look dead easy to fit just a few screws. 2010 Freelander2 TD4_e GS

A good find. Just ordered some myself for the rear. I wonder for the front you have to drill holes in the wing. Do you think you could get away with using 3m vhb adhesive the same stuff you use for the rear spoiler on the bracket that comes with it. . Not having felt the wait of them do any on here think it will work?. GS Sd4 2012 |

the thought of drilling into the body work I don't like that is why I was hoping 3m tape would work. GS Sd4 2012 |

It probably would, but I think well placed tree could pull it off if it got hooked. |

Fitted my rear light guards this morning, inbetween rain showers. Didn't use the rivnuts for the bracket but 12mm tec screws and the same for now in the side of the light. Thought I had a 7mm drill bit but apparently not.

Why? ... my last car had a light broken by a wheel bin in high winds. Also I like the look of them and it's my car so I can do what I want with it. 2010 Freelander2 TD4_e GS

I would guess a dog ramp! Common sense isn't very common.

Yes. DIY Housing for dog ramp, just pull the dog ramp out and dog sits above it, and compartment on the right for towels, or valuables that you want hidden when the door is closed.
