D2 Dash in D1?
 
From all my research so far it looks like the D2 dash fits in a D1 for the most part, minus some electrical connectors. I'm trying to confirm this before purchasing a nice dash I've sourced. Thanks.

Yes, size wise it will fit, connector wise no.

^^Yes^^ I would think you could potentially splice into the connecters (wire wise). As far as climate control, radio ect I don't know if that works?

For all practical purposes, the dashes are identical. I don't get it, what are you hoping to achieve?

EricTyrrell Feb 7, 2012 08:17 PM

Thanks. Have you guys seen anyone do it? I've searched around and haven't.

My dash and center console have seen better days and I really like the black dash, console, and airbag cover of the D2s. I can keep any D1 electric components whose D2 component wont work.

Find a black dash and center console off a '95 Range Rover Classic. Then you'd really be different.

Don't you work at a door factory? CNC a real wooden dash and console then you would have a really cool looking rig. Make it from one solid piece of wood.

That would certainly be unique and I think finely crafted wood in homes is excellent, but I'm not such a fan of wood in vehicles. In fact I'd really like to replace the dried out wood trim with brushed nickel.

Brushed stainless......

It's hard to find a 95 RR let alone one with a black dash. One was driven into a bone yard, it was being parted out. Too far away for me to rescue but I sure have the ambition. Sad. There is a Hunter nearby and I'm thinking it has my name on it.

With a 95 RR's dash you'd get an analog clock, now there's a bonus.

You can have my dash if you come down and help me fit a Range Rover Sport dash in my DII. :P
