I have asked this question before, but got no answer. Homelink, as it's called over here is, as far as I know, built into the mirror housing, so theoretically should be just a straight swap. However, I believe someone else on here was told by a Dealer that it couldn't be retrofitted. Keep us posted on this one if you get a result. |

My LR2 came with this feature and I was able to program it to open and close my garage door.

Mine has it but I've never bothered to use it (garage full of crap - can't get car in). Afraid I don't know if it can be retrofitted - but why bother when you can just carry the remote in the centre console tray? Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone

I was told by a dealer that it can not be retrofitted as the necessary parts are not fitted (additional to the mirror itself) unless originally specified.

I don't think that it true SimonB. Someone on here has already done it and it's just plug and play. But you may want to check as this was for a MY13 or above ie facelift. |

Been having a nosey at my rear view mirror today and I do not appear to have any additional wiring/plug for homelink. Can somebody else take a look and see if they have any different from myself...

The homelink is part of the mirror as such the wiring is already in the plug that the mirror uses. So you won't see extra wiring.

If the Homelink in the last-run Freelanders is the same as the Jags of that era (and it seems a lot of these parts are) then the module is built into the mirror itself, all self contained no additional wiring, it just needs power to it. 2008 Freelander 2 HSE Si6 Black/Black - Hers
