I think I'll get it colour coded silver to match my Defender while I'm waiting. It'll add a nice contrast to my interior.

Still haven't decided on a head unit yet.

Pretty sure your head unit will come with mounting hardware

This is the unit I decided on.
Alpine ILX-007E. Apple car play, no cd mechanism so very shallow fit. It mirrors my Apple phone, so same functionality.
$700 on special till end of July.
I'm still waiting on the facia mounting tabs from the UK supplier.

Sadly that moulding is so poorly fitting I wouldn't consider it..

Hack the clock mould off, poorly fitting the gauges..

Unless it's all been updated I would look for other options.

Hi Weeds.
Ofeonline is the name of the eBay seller.
They have more currently available if you're interested.

I noticed recently that Britpart was offering a double din Defender unit, but I'm not sure if it's the same one.

Aerpro also do one.

A heads up for those that bought the German brand dash (Nakane... Nakenanda... Nakone... dunno), the plastic tabs that the spring clips attach to aren't quite right. When you push the dash in the clips don't engage properly with the mating hole and was therefore a real pain in the ass to get it to work. A little hard to explain here so if you find youself in the same predicament drop me a phone number and I can verbally explain.
