hi can you help i have a R reg disco the side lights are in the bumper at the back but should they also be in the main light cluster
thanks

Disco-Ron:
Some have them, some don't, my R reg one only has tail lights in the bumper, with the indicators, and in the rear quarter light is brake lights and fogs, however, if you can source a light cluster from a disco with tail and indicators in the rear quarter lights, you 'may' find that the wiring is already there, however, don;t bank on it, cos it's not on all of them..... they chopped and changed so much during production, you can never be sure.....

carracarra13:
same hear never found two alike

lee celtic:
I think it's somthing to do with the US spec ones where they say both sides of the rear lights must be visable when the rear door is open .

for loading at the side of the road...

on a 200 tdi if you open the door the spare wheel covers the off side lights so they moved them to the bumper on the later models....;)

That's pretty much spot on..!!!!! but I'd read it was to do with hazard warning lights and the back door...lol

When they changed to the 300 series they just added side and indicator lights into the bumpers, then later (R reg onwards I think) they changed again and dropped the side and indicator lights from the rear quarters leaving them just in the bumper....it's confusing as hell as there are always some crossover models out there...!!!

Mine being an 'N' reg has tail and indicator lights in both the bumper and the rear quarter...I've even changed the tail lights in the bumper for stop/tail lights so now I have 4 of everything...lmao
