Usually for me it's OEM or bust for any parts or accessories, but for fun I was looking at the various parts available for the L494 on ebay. Before ordering the vehicle, I looked at all the accessories and thought the "rear loadspace treadplate finisher" as Land Rover calls it looks nice, but...

To anyone interested, I came up with a inexpensive fix to the non-functioning back up camera issue on my '06 HSE. I read on some threads that this issue comes up regularly and that it is the camera that is the problem and not the connections. After pulling mine apart and examining the camera...
