Commercial L663 110 Rear window activation.

There are a few companies offering rear window activation on L663 110 Hardtops but to my knowledge nobody has actually linked the rear windows to the driver window switch controls?

It appears that the commercial variant uses a different wiring loom within the rear doors and I believe that software activation maybe required?

A new Drivers door switch and switch cover is required. It looks like the switch and cover vary depending on what model you have.

It would also be good to get the rear door speakers installed and working, but this definitely needs the software changes so the rear speakers are on the FADER adjustment.

Does anyone have any experience of this?

If they can't link the rear windows to the drivers control switch then it's a pointless operation. The whole idea for me is to be able to control the windows from the front for my dogs in the rear 110 D250 SE HT

Does look good. Wonder if that's a wrap or painted and if it's wrapped, how well they've colour matched it. https://instagram.com/bentheoandrews

If you’re caught doing this by the vat man you’re screwed, the wording in the van rules are clear that rear windows cannot open.

In case anyone is interested, 90 HT on new configurator now available in HSE, X Dynamic and X variants. D200 no more. Pretty much all the same options now as the SW.

Vid of a 90 hard top with the bulk head removed. Just to wind anyone up who is with me in the long wait.

Any idea of how this is removed? Is it just taking out the screws as I want to do it my dog can be in the back

I spoke to Vulcan about this the other week. They currently don't offer the window activation on the 110. Something about needing so many parts and being expensive. But I'd assume that if enough people ask they'd offer it.

ls it worth the £1600 extra cost? l drove one on coil springs and it was great, but my daily driver is the old Defender so l guess it would be, compared to that.
