digital display. Systematic cost-cutting measures included the relocation of the front power window controls on the lesser Magna models from the door panels to the centre console, plus the removal of the individual battery cover compartment in the engine bay. The drivetrains of the TL/KL series for all models remained the same as that of the respective TJ/KJ Series 2 models, including those of the AWD and dedicated LPG models. The only difference consisted of rear stabiliser bars now fitted to all sedans. In terms of the AWD range, by 2003 sales extended to private buyers following the initial uptake by fleets (such as the NSW and New Zealand Police) and rental agencies. In TL guise, Sports models were now renamed as VR and, apart from AWD-specific driving and handling characteristics, MMAL relied on minimal badging to differentiate this range from FWD models. On the competition front, the TL Magna AWD entered in the Australian Cup class of the Australian Rally Championship in 2004, winning on debut—albeit as the only car entered in its class. In June 2004, VR models were discontinued, leaving the VR-X 2WD as the sporty model in the Magna range. A new VR-X AWD model was also announced at this time, going on sale 1 August (with the update for both models labelled MY04) but only offering 16-inch wheels as opposed to the 17-inch version fitted to the 2WD. VR-Xs were now distinguished by body coloured headlight bezels, a body coloured upper grille, silver mesh lower grille, a platinum coloured rear bumper insert (except for Platinum coloured cars, which received a Sable insert), and an extended chrome exhaust outlet. Mitsubishi also revised badging, with the "AWD" badge no longer on the front fender, and the "Magna" badge removed from the rear decklid. A "VR-X" badge is located on the right-hand side of the decklid, with an "AWD" badge situated on the left-hand side on AWD models. A "QuadTec" badge is located immediately underneath the "AWD" decklid badge, and an "AWD" decal is located on the lower rear doors of the all-wheel drive variants. Inside, a revised black cloth upholstery is standard, with black leather trim now extending to the steering wheel, transmission lever and handbrake. Colours were revised for the MY04 VR-Xs, with the release of Platinum metallic (replacing Pewter), Zen pearlescent (replacing Pacific Blue), and Fusion. Overall, the TL Magna was hampered by its old
