Also I had the Genuine Nissan Security Alarm fitted, can someone suggest an area of this forum where I can ask some questions re the testing / usage of the alarms?
You can use the electrical section for that.

Re: Adding a Glovebox Light to a T31 X-Trail
A Grail?
No thanks, I've already got one!
Frenchmen from afar - "Your mother was a Hamster and your father smelled of Elderberries."
Sorry, did you say glovebox light?
I thought you said 'Grail'.
They seem to be standard in the series 4.
That is, the light is standard, the Grail is not.
Anyway - I've already got one.
Apparently an optional Grail costs as much as a towbar.

Also, my Series 4 Ti doesn't have the glovebox light. I just went outside and checked while the car was running and the headlights were on.
I have to correct the above statement to avoid confusing anyone.
I double checked and my Series 4 Ti does indeed have a glovebox light or actually a candle and that is why I missed it the first time because it was so dim

Re:
Yep
Cost is the king
The dam tiny little light only comes on with the parkers or headlights.
Mine didnt work when I got the car, the globe had blown, probably because its always on.
I fitted a LED replacement, but be aware, it has to be fited the right way around or it dont work.
Try one way, if it dont light, turn it around, they must have a safet circuit to protect the LED.
The LED is brighter and will run cooler and should last longer.
I may rewire it later to a switch and have it live all the time.
As you say, who turns on the head lights to open a glove box on the other damn side of the car.
There should be some hot wires somewhere I can use and a simple door switch will suffice.
