Front Bumper replacement
Hi everyone, I have recently purchased a Disco 3 and looking for some technical advice as I have bought a pre used Front bumper off ebay with PDC, FOGS, and HEADLIGHT WASH, my existing bumper does not have any of these, Will it just be a case of plugging in the cable looms behind the headlight or is there more too it than that? Also the hose for the Headlight wash how does that conect the the windscreen washer reservoir?
I would really appreciate any help on this.

Welcome Steve
No idea on the PDCs sorry
The fogs will be plug and play but you'll need to upgrade the light switch to the right of the steering wheel to be able to use them.
The washers is another story. I just did this upgrade to mine and you need to remove the bottle and install another pump and level sensor - when all sorted should the water drop below a certain level the water is prioratised to the windscreen and the headlight washers stop working.
Its simple enough to drill the two holes - bit of guess work involved and fit the added bits. There should be two plugs there at the moment so just connect them to these. The hose is easy to fit too. There are clips inside the bumper already to run it behind.
Once you get your post count up, give member The Large One a pm and he'll give you a list of exactly what you need and a good price.
Only thing is, this upgrade needs to be enabled on your cars computer, does on mine anyway. will involve a trip to your friendly dealer or maybe one of the members on here has the ability to do it.
Heres a few photos anyway that might help
Good luck

Thanks for the information, looks like I have underestimated the task in hand and opened up a can of worms.
