MY12 DAB+ retrofit
I have looked across the site and found a couple of references but nothing quite what I'm looking for.
I have an MY12 XS with DAB and I'm looking to upgrade it to DAB+. From my understanding all I needed was a DAB module from a MY13 or newer (JLR one rather than FoMoCo) and an adapter lead.
I haven't had the rear panel of to look yet (ideally only want to have it off once)
I have purchased an adapter/link lead pn LR032814, and DAB module pn CPLA14F720BN.
Just wondering if anyone had previous experience with this upgrade. I am lead to believe it is simply plug and play. Fingers crossed!Now with: Tow bar & storage, Xenon's, Remote Timed Climate, Mood Lighting, Cubby Fridge, DRL's, Mud Flaps, 13 pin electrics, Heated Steering Wheel
Accessories: Rubber Mats, Spare Wheel Cover, LR Tyre Pressure Gauge, Warning Triangle, LED's throughout & Leather Gear Selector Top

Well, I can confirm it works!
I disassembled the right side panel in the boot, disconnected the old DAB module (FoMoCo branded), plugged in the new module (JLR Branded) with the adapter for what I believe is the power lead (black to green connector).
Did an autoscan and bingo huge number more stations and ones that had transitioned over to DAB+ which had disappeared are now back.
A few pictures of the new module installed for reference any questions Ill try and answer them.
