Did you notice the precut but not popped out aircon infra red sensor hole?

(Was not popped out on mine that is)

Not sure about any "precut not popped out" holes so I'll have to check. It does fit nicely though.

Mine just needs a couple of modifications to accomodate the GPS mount across the centre of the dash.

Got one for the Defender also..

Do I need one of these?
I thought the dash is ABS plastic or something so UV resistant?...

Thinking of where the defender was made, maybe not UV resistant....

I wondered whether they made one with a speaker cutout so contacted them. They said that the material they use does not affect the sound from the speaker.

It won’t have much if any impact for the frequency range of that centre speaker..

Hi Martin, I removed the speaker grill I turned it upside down and put it on the dash mat upside down marked around the outside then came in about 10 or 15 mm all the way around cut it out and you can see the result in the picture it's pretty easy to do.

If my dash ever cracks, then I’ll add one. They remind me of the UK where they carpet even the bathroom
