Sunny,
this can actually be done with a little elbow grease and minor electrical know-how. I have a UK spec sport and have done this modification. For the front side lights, the bulb holder is already there and you will need to get some bulbs and some wiring. I used the marker lights off my old ML270 which fit perfectly. For the rear lamps you would need to actually drill into the lights socket to be able to fit the lights. WIring is merely tapping into the running lights. If you can wait till the weekend I post some pics on this mod.

Sunny, yes please do post the pics together with instructions. I always wanted to do that and will certainly give it a go!  SOMETIMES YOU'RE THE BUG AND SOMETIMES YOU'RE THE WINDSHIELD

Is there not also a legality issue with SRLs in the UK??

I understood them to be technically illegal? L319 D4 HSE

RR, I think if you look at some Volvo models (previous model S & V40's seem to have them) here they appear to have SRLs on if they have daylight running headlights also enabled, same with SAABs. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Hi Tim.....been doing fine here, would you believe it my RRS has done only about 2K miles now !! and now have my first problem. The suspension has a fault and cannot raise or lower. The LR mechanic checked it out and said it was a faulty suspension compressor, and will take about 3 weeks to order the part. The car is usuable but cannot raise or lower. There is a suspension fault - normal height only signal on the dash. Have you or anybody here had this problem before ? RRS Supercharged Java Black /Ebony 1st Edition

Yes - it was a commonly reported problem at one point. I don't seem to remember anyone mentioning it for a while though.
