Thanks Ben!

That makes it a lot clearer. The few hiccoughs with translation are easily sorted.

Knowing how forums are a refuge of the illiterate, it might not be the translator at fault! ;)

You're not really a "Ben Willis" are you?

Ben Willis owns my local LR independent workshop, KLR Automotive.

No, but Dobbo's supplied the perfect line next time you talk to him :)

Oh how cool is that! And importantly for a P38 you could have built in RAVE manuals, and a rovacom to reset faults on the fly! :eek::D:wasntme:

Wow, now that's a tidy install.

Love what they have done with the panel integration to the dash, looks very slick.

More Inspiration:D

Did you see the later posts. Someone has put in a Double Din Sony Head Unit, and moved the Climate control up to where the clock is.:eek:

But I like the white dash lights.

Yes, I'll be doing mine tomorrow. I have the binnacle out at the moment.

If you look at this page: P38A Instrument Panel Removal (http://rangerovers.net/repairdetails/binnacle.html) you can see the pics of my dash and the bulbs which have green condoms over them. I suspect I just need to remove the condoms.

The green things might play a role in diffusing the light too?
