    I am selling some of my model cars to be able to then afford a floating one (Pioneer because they have never let me down)
    I love how the double din looks if Google them in D2s, but reality is I will probably struggle trying to modify my dash to fit one myself.

    A D1 dash piece is the same so if you can find a cheapie you can do a cut n shut to fit a DD unit.

    Thankyou I have a whole wreck of a disco 2 here, could try with its dash piece. I am a little worried about moving the heater down to to fit DD, and then losing the cup holders. ( wish the ones here had the cup holders that the american discos seem to get!)

    The centre console ones are better than nothing. I personally find them very useful especially after driving around without my centre console installed for a number of months.

    still available and in my opinion worth every cent.

    Land Rover Discovery II Cup Holders & Dash Kits | Rovers North - Land Rover Parts and Accessories Since 1979

    shop around on google and you should be able to get all the colours, black, smoke stone and beige.

    the dash mounted ones on the other hand . I would really like to see someone 3D print up a row of the square switch holders to replace it with. They should almost be a perfect replacement height and fit in quite well.

    cheers, Chris

    Hi Guys

    I did this! I looked at the other conversion of moving the air con controls down but then you loose the drink tray, and I really need one for my coffee!

    Love it!!! I actually ordered a pioneer floating screen one today Has anyone fitted a Double Din head unit into their D2? decided on one of those instead of moving and modifying things. Looking forward to it getting here then putting it in. (Ebay for the win saving lots so made sense to go this way)
