Hey all, just wondering what's involved in putting later model lights/grille in my 93, just update series 1 not 2 or 3? Not scared to do a bit of cut n shutting if that's what it takes, anyone done it or know a link I can check out? Thanks in advance, Mick.

X3! The early Discos look very dated now. But let's face it, they were being designed in the early-mid '80s.

The update was in 1995 wasn't it? I have a 1/96 model which I think is the update one? (Didnt the older ones have a different dash?).

Anyone got any pics to illustrate the differences - inside and out, between the pre and post update versions?

The differences are actually quite subtle outside. It's inside where the biggest differences are

Late 93 was the mechanical update but the facelift came in 94, at least the 3.9 came in late 93 but i think the 300TDI came in early 94.
