Hi,
Anyone know if the radiator grill on a 2004 Disco 'Classic' is the same as the earlier square headlight models (00/01/02/)?

It looks the same to me between models although I am getting conflicting advice to the affect that - "The later Disco's had the upgraded lights which were larger than the earlier models and so, have a smaller grille to accomodate" :(

I'm repairing a lightly damaged front end on a smick Classic and need to source a grill and obviously don't want to buy 1 that won't fit...

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Mike....any idea who the guy/company is or do you recommend just searcing UK eBay?

This Classic will make you envious!! Picked it up dirt cheap from the auctions after spotting it on-line. It has had a minor altercation with a tree and looked far worse at 1st glance. I went and inspected and knew I had a Pearl so original pland to cannabilise it for parts were forgotten!

Once home and pulled the written off bullbar and plastics off, I found a completely straight vehicle underneath that I have worked out will need about $3K of replacement parts (Including the bullbar).

While I have the front end apart and the radiator/coolers etc out, I'm going to up-spec the turbo and intercoolers, junk the EGR, remapped ECU etc and finish up with a gem that will cost less than $10K in total!

It's sooooo nice being able to work on a TD5 with the front end off let me tell you!! ;)
