I’m not sure, but if you can send me a few photos of your rack with measurement from top of rack to the safari windows I can have a check. Failing that we could make another version for the shorter rack.

Hiya Ryan,

Apparently, there are some issues with delivery of the roofrack 6F so Ineos has taken details off their website for now. I did get a notification that, apparently, they will be delivering them in Q3 of this year. I imagine there are a lot of Grenadier owners waiting for theirs.
Having said that, I'm 99.5% sure it is this one:

Finally I take a picture of my Buzz Overland drawers, a very high quality product and a fabulous deal from Ryan, looking forward to the information of the rear seat delete system.

Hey Guys,

I thought I'd share a preview of lighting options we are bringing to market for the Grenadier:

Factory Spotlight Upgrade to the 6" Rigid 360 series lights.

This will comprise of our own Carbon Fibre light bezels (Note 3D printed prototypes are shown in the photos) to replace the factory bezels and a 316 stainless steel bracket that bolts into the factory spotlight mounting points. There is no drilling or cutting required for the installation.

Hello Ryan , really interested in the spotlight upgrade . Was wondering how are you powering them ? Using the original wiring harness of the oem aux lights ? And are they still being controlled from the aux light switch from the overhead panel ?
Thank you.

Could you take a pic with the fridge drawer open?
I'd love to see how this functions.

Hey @Tinki we supply a plug and play harness that allows you to use the same switch on the overhead panel as you would do for the stock lights. We do this by supplying a plug to plug into the factory wiring harness. This is then used to trigger a relay. The lights themselves are powered by this relay which is connected to one of the M8 +12v posts in the engine bay. The 360’s draw more current that the factory spots hence we need to wire them this way.

The rigid 360’s also have a backlight. We priced a small patch harness that plugs into the back of the headlight to trigger these.

The kit is completely plug and play and requires no modification to the vehicle at all.

My Man Ryan that is exactly what i was hoping !!! Really dislike chopping oem harnesses .
This is the perfect solution for me .
Will you guys be selling it as a kit for self installation ?

Thank you for the reply Ryan !

@RyanT - Two questions:

1) Does a UK Grenadier allow for the aux factory lights to operate with the high beams in any mode? Here in the U.S., we're constrained to using them in "off road mode" only... so, a plug-and-play is great, but doesn't defeat the nanny system. Or is there a by-pass?

2) Would you consider researching a (red) rear fog lamp option? I live amidst frequent fog and they're very helpful to brighten my existence to passing motorists.

Thanks!

Just checking that you realise the Grenadier has rear fog lights …

Thanks. I had mine for only a short time before putting away for winter storage, so I can't confirm. According to the owner's manual, it's not the kind of rear fog light I'm after... I'm looking to install the kind that certain European cars have that are brighter red than the regular tail lights. I have them on my Audi and Land Rover and it helps to be seen in inclement weather.

No rear fog light in the US.

Sorry, I didn’t know US vehicles weren’t equipped with them.

The question is why the rear fog light is left out for US models. It would be ideal for use as a chase light in dusty conditions.

We wanted to make this as simple as we could and also didn’t want folk to be chopping into OEM harnesses or grills for that matter.

The kit is available to order in our website:

Hey @vtgrenadier,

1. Yes we can operate the spots via the overhead console switch irrespective of what mode the vehicle is in. The only requirement is that your high beams are in. I believe it’s only the US models that aren’t like this.

I’m not aware of a bypass but what you can do is use one of your overhead aux switches. Even if you don’t have the hi load pack you could use EXT1(10A) to trigger the relay that’s supplied as part of our kit. Or if you have the hi load pack you can use EXT5 (25A) to power the lights directly. So either way you can have full control of when the lights are turned on irrespective of driving mode.

2. I know rigid did do a SR-M in red that would have been ideal for a rear facing fog. I’m not sure what other options are out there.

Very into the rear lights

vtgrenadier · Monday at 11:15 AM

@RyanT -

Can you comment on the light output of the Rigid360s? I really would like to go with 7" or even 9" Sentinels, as I have a pair of LR-750 (branded "Triple R" in the US) that far outperform any Rigid lights - including $$$ light bars - that I've had to date.

But I can be convinced!

Hey Guys, We did a series of drone shots recently to try and capture the difference between the various lights. Here are a few comparison shots of the reverse lights. We used a DJI Mavic 4 Pro drone. You can see how the autoexposure is adjusting between the photos of the OEM lights only compared to the photos with our Rigid Kit (you can tell by how much darker the shadows are in the photo of the Rigid lights so these are quite a bit brighter than the photo alludes to).

OEM Reverse lights vs Our Rigid Kit with the SR-M's.

And then a few more shots:

Any chance we can have some
Pictures of the under bonnet installation how it looks ? Thank you Ryan
