Only Landrover could have the nerve to suggest putting on a Mac because the car leaks!

Well , unless the one I have has some clever anti-shrink and set the car on fire properties it may as well be a bin bag Rolling Eyes Yet to fit it. Thankfully I only have the Nav & nav bracket to remove on my 2003. 2010 Disco XS TDV6, 2009 Freelander 2 GS

Wouldn't a 5litre Ice cream container or a large Tupperware box cut to fit be cheaper than the LR bin liner? 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

Fitted mine today. Three bolts out on my '03 Sat nav bracket off.. Then installed the bin ba... er water shedder... fed one antenna cable through with a small hole.. then three bolt holes. The product does make perfect sense when installed and will protect all the electronic gubbins. It also clearly made of a material designed to withstand the heat the various devices create.

I'm all for it!

I still think the biggest killer will be condensation in this cupboard.. the shedder will also deflect cold air from the rear window coming down through the vent on to the warm/hot devices. Air con may help... but as soon as you open the doors to normal atmosphere then the cabin is full of air as moist as the rest of the world. Only other way around it is to buy your FFRR a bubble suit

It does get my vote and is realistically priced. Thumbs Up

The TSB suggests the '05 onwards could be more of a mare. 2010 Disco XS TDV6, 2009 Freelander 2 GS

What I don't understand is why LR wouldn't just fix the problem? Not all RR's leak, so there must be an issue with the ones that do?

Or maybe there is something wrong with the ones that don't leak!?

The whole situation is laughable, the car leaks so we'll just use a sheet of plastic - what about when the water fills the wheel well up and drowns the EAS pump, oh wait a minute here is the next TSB:

Help with installation

Has anyone got any idea how to fit the water shedder EOT500030 as it doesn't come with instructions and the one sheet I've managed to print off bears no relation to the 'armchair' cover I have. I've already replaced an amp and a radio because of water damage so I'm keen to fit this correctly and avoid another expensive replacement. And if anyone has worked out where the water comes in and knows how to stop it on a 2002 vogue l322 that would be terrific. All help gratefully received. Cheers richar
