Thanks Ralph, thats exactly my set-up. I see that they have the CD unit set into a revised cubby box which might be easier as I can't see how to get the grey facia off and do not want to b*gger it up in the process.
There's not enough depth behind the aircon facia to accomodate a standard head unit.
On the non-aircon facia Land Rover used to fit a grey plastic housing to hold the head unit at an angle in the middle of the dash, this also wasn't deep enough to accomodate a DIN standard head unit. The head unit Land Rover fitted at the factory was a Philips model that wasn't as deep as a DIN sized unit.
I fitted a standard sized Pioneer head unit into the oblong recess in the middle of my 110's lower dash.
In order to do this I had to remove the complete lower dash and make a duct in the back of it so that I could lower the main wiring harness from the bulkhead gromit to the instrument pod.
This still doesn't give enough depth and I also had to make 12mm thick spacer for the front of the unit's mounting cage.
The unit got very hot in this position because of the tightness of the installation and the fact that its sat on top of the heater's air duct (the whole lower dash assembly).
I eventually bought myself a Tuffy Deluxe Stereo Security Console and put the head unit in that.
A much easier route than modifying the dash.

Those are not Military brackets, they're definately home-made.
They've used Joyners Timber Connectors from B&Q -

Yep that's 'em, have the angle plates for all mine as well, just haven't got the 2 types of washers, the rubber ones might be worth adding to my 4 I've fitted, I 've got 4 of the 395104's as well, can't remember where I got the from.
Ralph,
The washers (one steel, one rubber) are only fitted to the Cam Net tie-downs.
This is because they're on the Hard Top roof and they're there to prevent leaks
I've got lots of RRC3588 and the angle plates, also quite a few 395104.
I REMEmber exactly where I got them
and how much I paid for them Paul.

We found this website at work some time ago, it's German and appears to be aimed at men with a fetish for women getting muddy in cars, with a bit of mud-wrestling thrown in for good measure - I suppose it takes all-sorts!
It's worth a look though - Car Stuck Girls
Here's the Picture Gallery
and here's the Land Rover 110 Gallery
I think it's fairly safe to look at in the office.

Jim,
No, I'm afraid that I don't know of anyone, other than the manufacturers, who print the symbols for switches.
In my experience, the manufacturers list a huge variety of different symbols/legends, but when you try and buy them they tell you that (apart from the usual suspects - Aux Lamps, etc...) they are to special order and minimum order quantities apply.
