Got mine off a Land Rover forum some years back for the D4. Looks like this;

I just ordered something similar and a CTEK trickle charger - great idea thanks

My senior moments are getting more frequent. Because it's out of sight/out of mind and you won't see it unless opening the boot etc, I always plong something on the bonnet or put some warning post-it on the dash. Otherwise I'd be likely to drive off and pull my garage electrics out!

Hopefully you are more likely to remember than I am to forget.

I did actually think about this and am going to make a point of driving the car in nose first to my shed so I need to walk past the arse of it so I won’t forget to unplug it!

I've been putting notices on my dash for sometime, I have one that is actually used when driving "Bike rack fitted". I have a towball fitted bike rack (not used in the Grenadier yet) that I used on the Disco, and when the bike was off couldn't see the bike rack, had many a reversing prang.

Yes had a few of those on the old Disco. Buzz Rack incoming at ramming speed!
