One thing I have never seen on a Land Rover that's common (unfortunately) on Jeeps - angry bird/angry eyes or pretty much any type of goofy grill.
This one doesn't count - it belongs to Veronica Lemond, she's an author of a children's book featuring "Landy" the Land Rover.
Those are happy eyes, but let's hope angry bird eyes don't become a fad for Grenadiers like they were in the Jeep world. I'm sure they won't, the average Grenadier owner isn't like the average Jeep owner.
And while I'm at it, let's hope we never see the rise of "Duck Duck Grenadier" where people are lining up ducks on their dashboard.

Hanging tables.
This Land Rover has been converted to a mobile coffee shop and I'm posting it because of the hanging table - seems to just be a couple of ropes that wrap around the roof rack. The table rests against the body, and seems to be covered in cloth of some kind so it doesn't scratch the paint.
Here's a slightly smaller version, this one also hangs on a roll bar with wire rope, and the table appears to be a piece of either aluminum or stainless with a couple of bends in it. Looks like there's also a rubber mat on the table and I'll guess there's a strip of rubber on the back of the table where it contacts the body.
Either of these should be easy to make, and you could hang them from the Grenadier's roof bars.

These storage pockets that go on the inside of a Land Rover hardtop are interesting.
They seem to install inside a Land Rover hardtop with no drilling. Something like this might be able to be hung on the two attachment points on the inside of the Grenadier's cargo area roof.
Another inside option for Land Rovers are these "side trims", panels that go inside the hardtop.

These seem like a good idea if you've got a changing room under your roof top tent.
I like the idea - just as he describes, sometimes if it's windy the wind causes a gap between the vehicle and the changing room fabric. It wasn't windy when this photo was taken and it 's on one of my Jeeps not the Grenadier, but in the wind the fabric moves around a lot and often comes away from the side of the Jeep.
From my reading of the description these seem to require making a hole in the fabric. If something like these suction cup clips I found on Amazon were used the clip could grab the fabric and no hole would be required.
