Underfloor conversion, possible?
Soooooooooo, just got to wondering.......

With the 110 non HT version, would it be possible to change from this:

To this:

The commercial version looks just so much better and more usable, if it was possible LR really should offer it as an option. Preferably free. Whistle Whistle

The “F” word doesn’t exist in JLR’s spell checker so there’s no chance getting that for nowt Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

Anything’s possibly it just depends on how much 💷 you’re willing to throw at it.

Agreed re the F word and LR. Love the way to upgrade wheels you have to pay, to downgrade you don’t get any reduction. Thumbs Up

It looks like that whole module just screws in as a one-er, but the price of that as a part is bound to be on the pricey side.

I can see one drawback of the HT’s underfloor storage - your jack and tools have no “slots” to fit into and will slide around unless you fill the space with other “stuff” which will also slide around on every corner....... unless you find some way to secure them in the locker that is where the 2nd row of seats would be in the 5/7 seat models, something like the bracket and ties like I have on the bulkhead in my TDi300 Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

Re jack and tools, ISTR they are in a bag and that’s what the straps at the back hold in place. I’ll try and find the pic, or bit of vid, but it looked pretty neat.

If this was a Series thread, someone with a beard and combats would have knocked one up this afternoon using some old pallets, piano hinge, a couple of struts and a tin of varnish....... Very Happy
