Looks great! You wouldn't be able to tell that it was an MY12 by looking on the outside. I love those seats too. Any chance of you selling it?

Thanks for the pictures.

I like that exhaust tip...... is it standard as you have it on your 57 as well....

I took it off my 57 and fitted to my 2012 also did the same with the mud flaps, Chris the new 2013 grill is edged in silver trim, but you need a good eye to notice. 2013 hse auto, black, almond leather, exnon lights, factory privacy glass, exhaust finisher, rear boot spoiler, mud flaps.

Do the DRL's dip when you have the indicators on? Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Hi Mav, no they stay the same brightness. As with the new 2013 cars the indicator and DRL are not next to each orther.
I ask the auto electrian could it be done, he said the signature strip and DRL are wired together so if you dim the DRL it would turn off the signature strip.

Hope that helps  2013 hse auto, black, almond leather, exnon lights, factory privacy glass, exhaust finisher, rear boot spoiler, mud flaps. Body door side moulding and steps.

Correct me if I am wrong, but under EU Legislation I believe that that constitutes an MOT Failure, as they have to dim when the indicator is on and flashing. Foraging near Gaydon....

Not sure about that ? but the 2013 model doesnt dim when the indicators in use, perhahs it depends were the DRL is. Ive noticed Citroens, Peugeots with DRLs fitted in to the bumper they dont dim when indicating.

I will find out and let you know my finding, If my lights need to be re-wired I will have to do it  2013 hse auto, black, almond leather, exnon lights, factory privacy glass, exhaust finisher, rear boot spoiler, mud flaps. Body door side moulding and steps.

My Audi DRLs dim when indicating by default, I've changed the behaviour using VCDs due to the number of idiots flagging me down in car parks to tell me my lights are faulty.

The car has just passed its MOT too, MoT was done by Audi.

2013 DRL's do dim when the indicators are on. Not the strip parts, but the round DRL led part 100% dim's when the indicators are on.

It is law that headlight mounted DRL's dim when the car is indicating. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

My DRL is on with my side lights/ sigature strip, so when my side lights are off the DRL is off. I've got 2 years before my mot is due' I will sort it out i well before that. 2013 hse auto, black, almond leather, exnon lights, factory privacy glass, exhaust finisher, rear boot spoiler, mud flaps.
