What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[255/85]

I knew I wanted a driver's side grab handle.
I ordered the right hand drive version cars grab handle for the left side from ineos. Works to much better and I prefer to have this handle to get into the car.
Took about 6 weeks to get to the US and my ineos dealer.

We've got a RHD handle on order. Still several weeks out. The Better Half asked for it specifically but I've noticed that, at my height and seat position, I can occasionally activate the lockers with my head when using the steering wheel to climb in. I've never quite mastered @Tazzieman's gutter grab.

Finished fitting a sub (above the handbrake mechanism under the rear seats) and a Wolfbox.
All good, a couple of worthwhile improvements.

Do you have sufficient room to adjust the handbrake cables with the subwoofer in place?

Local dealer hosts a regular "Trucks & Trees" event. I forgot to count but eight or ten Grenadiers showed up. The drive, weather, scenery and new friends were all really nice. Can't beat fire and hot dogs next to a lake. Thanks to Mark & Darren & Weissach for organizing!

Holy cow, that is some absolutely stunning scenery!! If I was there, I may have never left.

No!
Just a 1 minute job to take it out though.

After 13 mos of waiting I finally got the wing chequer plate installed. Some things I think (as will most of you with your own particular items) the Gren has to have, lockers, panels, safari windows, sela green, whale foreskin steering wheel hide etc etc. The chequer plate was on the 'must have' list. I al still searching for bonnet chequer.

Thanks to Mr. & Mrs. @Logsplitter for very kindly picking up my OEM plate down in South Africa and for carting it around for weeks. It is definitely the best travelled item on my wagon by a long shot!

Unfortunately due to some EU laws we were denied the option at build, but where there's a will (and a willing friend) there's a way.

Most chuffed.

Black rivets matter.

 

[ORSO]

did you put something between the chequer plates and the bodywork to prevent damage?

Just the standard rubber strips and silicon on the rivets. Did not want to lock moisture in.
