RRS Dash into my D3

After reading this thread -

https://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/rr-sport-ce...96635.html

I really liked the looks of it, and decided I should have a go Whistle




Not finished on this pic ^ Outer vents / Glovebox still to do.



I'm pleased how it's turned out Thumbs Up

I love that.

Could you write a list of the parts needed

Looks like the radio is a bit closer and the gearshift is more towards the driver

Is it fully plug and play or is there any mods to be done to fit

We’ll done

Gearbox flush by terrain vehicles
V8 brake upgrade
Will always ask silly questions

+1

Can you advise what parts you required for this? What age model of RRS etc

Always felt my D3 looks a bit dated and this would be a nice update to the interior

Thanks..

If you look here - https://www.drive2.ru/c/469427969337590370/

There's a useful picture of the parts. A couple of extras I found I needed were gear selector cable from RRS ( original was too short for new lever position) and hazard switch panel ( slightly different to D3 )

Apart from that everything was pretty straight forward - I think the most fiddly bit was re routing the wiring loom to the correct position. I had it in and out a few times until it was long enough to reach.

The parts need to be from a pre facelift RRS, I think that is 2005 - 2010, everything I have done to mine was straight swap with no cutting of either trim or wiring.

Lastly - If anyone intends to do this, Please do your homework first. This is just a short observation of my experience of the job, and not necessary the correct way of doing it. I can't be responsible if it doesn't work or goes wrong.

Yeah i had a look at that link so it must be an L320 RRS

Appreciate the info, i did wonder how you would be able to shift the selector that much without extending the cable

now just need to start stock piling parts haha

Yeah. Parts from 2005 RRS

Note at some point they changes from silver/grey to black 4x4 switch pack.

I’m surprised neither of you went for the RRs round gear selector.
Though it does say Range Rover on it Laughing

What is the part number/name of the part the the radio and climate slot in to?

I've managed to find everything else on eBay but can't find the radio cage/bracket for the life of me!

Sorry, should have made note of part number but didn't Sad

What I did was get in touch with sellers on eBay that were advertising as 'Breaking L320' as they don't seem to list this part. I suppose there isn't much call for them.

Actually had to take it apart again today when my glove box arrived, as one of the mounting bolts was behind the console support frame Big Cry

I must try harder to do things in the correct order first time round..

That looks brilliant. I have a full eBay basket apart from one part - not sure what it is! I have circled it in this pic
