Thread: Dash curling how to fix?

1995-1998 Disco?


LR released a repair kit for the lifting problem along the front edge (near the windscreen) but it's a bit of an afterthought sort of a kit. It's basically a length of shaped steel that is screwed in place to hold the dash flat.


LR also had an updated dashboard available. These were fitted under warranty, often when the car was up to 5-6 years old. This was quite an expensive exercise at the time but, the last time I checked, they had a few unsold dashboards in their warehouse stock & had reduced the price to something like $100/200.


I recently glued my lifting RR dash using Sikaflex. My dash was out of the car so access wasn't a problem.

Be a bit careful with the heat gun, plastic can turn into a big shrinky if it gets too warm. And don't try it on a cold day - the nice laminated windscreen is close by, too much disparity of temperature on either side of the glass may have interesting results.

Well I think if I can get one relatively cheap I don't mind replacing it certainly wouldn't want to pay anymore than $200 at the high end of the scale thats for sure.
How would I go about finding one of these replacement dashboards? Im guessing contact a landrover dealership maybe?
Otherwise I guess can always go seeking for a second hand one am sure someone on here probably has one laying around there shed someplace lol

It appears they only had non-SRS dashes left in stock a few years ago.
