Yeah, on 23 UK models just hit the Aux button and they work with the main beam . I think when deployed it’s the best main beam of any vehicle I’ve owned .
One thing I’d like to know is why there are so many for sale with well under 5k miles. Our local dealer probably has 70 of these on the lot. I’ve inquired about end of year specials, but they are talking like 2k-which doesn’t motivate anyone.
Ineos transport and delivery system has dealer’s filling their lots with one shipment. Ineos isn’t big enough to maintain a large port storage facility so when the ship is unloaded, they kind of all come in at once. A lot of those sitting on the lots are pre-sold. Ineos dealers have to schedule buyers to pick them up. I own two. That’s how both of mine arrived. The base model price of $71,500 is a bargain, in my opinion. They’re built like tanks. Check one out in person. Look at the frame, suspension, etc., Very over built. They’re real off-readers. The base model lacks dual lockers. But they are still very capable off-readers with just the center lock. They’re not Range Rovers or Lexus - these are real expedition vehicles.
In the UK, the centre beams are able to be used on road but to be honest, they don't add much light. I am plan to improve the lighting on that front. (to enable them, its just one button on the top panel and they come on with full beam)
The saddle leather package is perhaps the most frivolous and pricey, BUT it is dead sexy, will look better with wear, and adds some warmth to grey interior for a really lux look. Much like Safari windows. I couldn't not get them. You don't understand the purpose of rain gutters? Seriously? I guess you like rolling down your window and having any sitting water on roof pour in the second you start moving. Have you looked at how half the racks are attached? Noise even with KO2s is pretty minimal for a brick wind profile. I love the flat surface on the door as well, and how nicely padded it is. Dead on with the stereo, passable but needing an upgrade. Glove box is pretty seriously tiny.
Have you checked your oil level yet? I just did at 2k miles and had to add 500ml. Getting diamond plate on fenders is really helpful when accessing engine which is pretty fat back to add oil.
Only having 14 steps for stereo is not optimal as is the low speaker placement. AMP, SUB, upper tweeters, and front door speakers is on the agenda for me. MAN, THE HEATED SEATS! ROASTY TOASTY
Looks like this fella rolled right out of a Bass Pro Shop catalog, and the Grenadier is just another accessory.

No sure why someone would get a Grenadier without Lockers.
For show
Lockers should be standard for what they position this vehicle as.
Well if it is a mall crawler for the wife and you are trying to keep the price down, nice to have this whole a la carte build.
1000 mile review 😅
What is the point?
If one is unhappy with a vehicle in the first 1000 miles one hasn’t done their diligence before buying
