Disco4 HSE - Cornering Lights
Hi 1st post for me with a question...so please be gentle
I just bought a Discovery HSE 10 plate for towing my new caravan.
Seems I should have done my research on some of the extra I thought would be there but aren't. After owning a Jag XF sport with all the toys perhaps I got a bit presumptuous...!
I'm used to having cornering lights. I notice my Disco 4 has what appear to be chrome dummy bulbs in the cornering lights location.
Whats the chances of wiring being in place?
Will I need some program/unlock update to activate feature?
What other features can be unlocked with some programming access
Any help really appreciated as feels somewhat dumb thinking that buying a high spec vehicle would give me obvious items like this which come as standard on other cars I've owned.
thanks Loving my D4 HSE -MY10......!!!!

On a HSE you should have timed park heater, but you may not have the remote option. I am in Glos this Sunday if you wanted that
Corner lights can usually be enabled on d3, I assume same for d4 but I haven't specifically checked.Bodsys Brake Bible

Thank DG - realise that now on the adaptive headlights side.
Looks like previous owner just order off the shelf HSE with no extras.. but hoping can at least activate the corner lights and maybe get some other features activated.
Could you let me know Bodsy on whether they can be and how much typically cost to activate/get working

Think you would need to change to cornering\ afs xenons ..the cornering would work after but the afs would require a module install.
I've a nice set of D4 HSE Adaptive Xenons in the garage, complete with corner and fairy lights, they'll be listed in the FS section as soon a I get chance

You might want to check the FBH timer has been enabled. My HSE didn't come enabled although a lot of people seem to think it is standard on HSE spec. Check the Home menu for this.2010 D4 HSE Ipanema Sand on GY DTs (was on GG ATs)

Timed was an option on a MY10
Here's a price list from that year with the Standard and Option spec
Dboss, circa £330-350 will get the FBH (timed and remote) all working for you from one of the great guys on here

thanks to all for the hints and tips, this actually is the first forum ive ever really posted to and loving the quick responses and helpful comments.
The timer heater - yes considering that and noticed can buy from Techs on here, so will keep in mind.
Cornering lights was one of my key items, but sounds like i need a whole new headlamp set which is a pain, unless the wiring is there and just needs enabling in some way.
I've driven discoveries before but when you test adn explor you dont necessarily notice the small things and they're usually the annoying items, such as the DRL's.
As i bought a used D4, didn;t get ability to choose my options so easily. Hey ho, at least things can be added and will stick around on here for help.
cheers people.. Loving my D4 HSE -MY10......!!!!

Beanie how much for the adaptive xenons. To say I am interested is the understatement of the century. My HSE came loaded with some very expensive extras but to previous owner didn't pay £300 for the AFS! I mean who in there right mind can turn down a bargain like that...
Ive just tested and photographed them, I'll be listing them a little later tonight , needless to say they'll not be £300 Altox GSM FBH controller thread
