Looks very pro.
Waiting for more pics.

By the way, have you developed a switch pod for the cubby box. I think something simililar to 1998 Discovery lay out.
I've seen a double battery controller but none for carling switches.
We can fit almost six carlings there.
Thanks.

Looks good, again, await completed project.
On another matter, perhaps you could sort out your website in English (as well as German as now). It's quite a 'pain' to have to turn to 'google translation' - just a viewpoint.

Does a mobile clip, such as the Brodit for an iPhone still fit or not?

Scania trucks used to fit their tachograph units just above the heater ducting and they used to last less than a year so i would look at keeping that area cool??
Defenders have heaters now. 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..

no temperature problems there! We have been using some prototypes without any problem.

August: sorry nothing planned for the cubby at the moment.

The aluminium frontplates are in the CNC department and will be ready soon.

The Brodit mobile holder for the upper duct don't fit anymore, but there is a model which is mounted lower, that works. WANTED:

Pete looks good, my glove box from you makes me happy everytime I use it

I agree with others with regards to your web site im put off by not knowing how much stuff will cost or having a good English description, you must loose loads of UK sales due to the translation issues, perhaps you need a good UK stockist DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy

Use Google Chrome as it translates the page in real time. Also Leeds (Brendan) stocks a few Nakatanenga items Whistle

Sooner or later we will have an english website. But with over 1000 part descriptions to translate....

All goods are available in the UK through a couple of retailers and Safari Equipe

The heighth is at least 70mm. I don't have it in my mind and the sample is at the CNC guy. Depending on the model of Satnav i think it is possible to mount WANTED:

Don't forget about the 'Anything that's been added to the vehicle and is higher than 40mm above the wiper park position its illegal'. (for a commercial vehicle) 130's have feeling's as well you know Smile

Bad news, as the lower is not suitable for navigational purposes as gps reception is too low. Never forget: cars have owner, Landrover have field service personnel.
