Salva Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 My flight panel Well thats what it looked like , its stripped down now for the SVA to take away any sticky out bits that might fail it..... still there all but behind the dash all safely taped up Wow impresive! Can you tell as wich component you have install? Do you have some more pictures. It has side panels? Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcanuck Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Kev, Thanks for the feedback, you are absolutely right regarding the work required, initially i thought it might work, the dash was completely pulled out as I'm touching up the bulkhead for repainting, and pieced everything together on the floor of my flat last night and realized the plenum would need to be heavily modified the easiest part is the fascia mod. Fortunately, I work for an aircraft co. here in the middle east and have access to all the workshops (metal or composite) to do the necessary work on my off time. So, at present I'm doing some measurements to figure out if I can make a box plenum assembly to run flush along the bulkhead, mating with the various vents, I can also form wire-wrapped silicone hose and achieve the same thing. The bulkhead doesn't have the vents (hence no corrosion), so fewer obstructions.Might be a first for your panel Mark. That being said, it might be a whole lot easier to pick-up the parts required to convert over to the later style dash, there appears to be a bunch of wrecked LRs a few hours from me, shold be able to find what I need amongst the carnage As a side note we are thinking of buying up a bunch of used parts and shipping a container load back to Canada. Anyone need anything? Ralph, you had replied to some of my questions on LRO forums (elderberry) much appreciated! Cheers All, Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Baldwin Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Since we launched the MUD dash console, we've had dozens of requests on where to buy the switches. Besides the usual suppliers, we've just found this one in the US that some of you may find useful: Switches Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troll Hunter Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 The link below shows another 2002 style mod, and the prices quoted are far more realistic. MikeRowen http://www.reedx.net/landrover/mods/2002dash/index.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 that's the genuine LR Defender dash parts, not a aftermarket one like the Irongoat & Mudstuff versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul64 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Hi, That looks very impressive! Are you based in NRW? Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakatanenga Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Hi, thx We are based in 92348 Berg b. Neumarkt. You can find us here www.nakatanenga.de The dash was a one off. We can reproduce it at any time. At the Moment we are selling the iriongoat and the MUD one. But there is also one in Aluminium under construction. Here is the full story of the vehicle.....unfortunately in german language but with nice pics. http://www.autobild.de/tuning/autotuning/a...artikel_seite=1 Cheers Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoSS Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 nakatanenga - I like the head lining. How was that done? custom? what material was used? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakatanenga Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 It is neoprene. It is glued with a very special glue. Once it is placed you cannot remove it any longer. Very tricky job especially around corners etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siearl Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Looks good bet it is fun to keep it cleaning and gleaming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diesel_jim Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 The 110 sure is shiny, but i much prefer the photographer..... (well, rear view anyhow!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoSS Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 It is neoprene. It is glued with a very special glue. Once it is placed you cannot remove it any longer.

Paul64 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 That looks great. Looks more like a cockpit on an aircraft! You have obviously got your sat nav issues sorted. What do you do with several screens? I hope you keep your rig locked up at night with all that kit on display. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have workshops & fitting service, or do you only sell parts? Would you sell MwSt free, as I am working here as civilian with British Army? Cheers, Paul.

BigSi110 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Mmmm. Lovely 110. Shiny. Mmmmmmm. Clean. Mmmmmmmm Lots of polishing. Mmmmmm Cleaner than mine! What!? Thought the guy sitting in the back was Richard Hammond. Then I looked a bit harder... Too tall. Very thoughtfully done. Can someone start doing the dash etc for reasonable money before the larger retailers get hold of it and start charging ££££. That 110 has gotta find its way over here and do a few shows.
