I fitted a number plate light reverse camera and hooked it up to a rear view mirror with auto dimming with 4.5 screen. The auto dimmer is far better than factory fitted one. All cables clearly hidden, it looks stock.

Cool.

Collected it last night, put it on the drive this morning.

Not sure if it can be bought but the lower half of mine is broke and I'm replacing it. Don't mind removing it and sending it to you to try and replace the fin on your grille.

*Edit: I have a 2011 G but by the looks of it, it's the same. Can send more pictures to confirm

I got both old and upgraded one on this photo.
Black is my old G, white my current one.

On the older fins are straight when upgraded one are more like arches.

I think I prefer the original one

My car got retrofitted with the latest version, no chrome at all. That's my least favourite

Thanks

I got my car back from my insurance company Monday, now to fix it,

front drop link replaced. Slow or fast tapping noise even at very slow speeds. Still to investigate the brand with garage but I think it was the same side that was replaced 15 months ago when the top strut bearing was done.

A week after the final Oil change after my Turbo issues, completed full oil and filter change and opened up her lungs a bit with a K&N. She runs like liquid gold at the moment. Washed her as well only for it to pee down and make her dirty again.

Both from Aliexpress. The number light was easy to install but to make life easy I drilled a 12mm hole to feed eads into the boot. The mirror was tricky. I had to adapt the mount (ordered fiat one) which it came with. I have to cut the end off at the mount and create a tread to mount it onto the existing using with seatbelt and rain sensor area. I just didn't fancy a clip on one and wanted it to look as stock as possible. To remove the old mirror I had to cut the wires leading into it. The mirror is powered into the fuse box near steering wheel using a fuse doubler. I connected it to a 5amp fuse which was an accessory which powered on with ignition, the camera takes power from the reverse light. Its really good but I did it in in 3 stages. I will try to take some photos for you.

She is getting taxed and insured on the 1st Feb, thought I would have a check and service her, Oh boy the 2.0 jtdm oil filter is stupid, that job is held up until tomorrow when a 32mm spanner arrives.
Air filter is in, fuel filter is in, new badge on the front and a temp repair for the top dipstick tube has been made where the bracket snapped.
