Im after the plug for the dash hi/low range switch
I have a diesel auto so dont think I'll have one it the back off the dash but dont realy want to start hacking away at the wires anyway
Ive got a dvd system to fit complete with sun visor monitors and headrest monitors and was wanting to wire a (standard looking) switch to kill the power to them when not in use
Now ive bought a transmission switch off ebay cos I dint want a switch ive already got but when I messaged the guy to get the plug he had already sold the loom and knowone else on ebay has one
So if anyone has one id very much appreciate it ££ or failing that if anyone knows if there will be one pre wired behind my dash

Try this guy RRParts - Home for Range Rover Classic Recycled Parts

I know he had a manual one in as I robbed some bits off it.

Ill give him a try tomorrow
Failing that was thinking maybe a few small spade type connectors
Does anyone know which pin does what?

Well the switch came today and turns out its no good for the job anyway lol
I need a locking switch like the cruise switch and the guy told me this was! Never mind, hey ho, hey ho ,back on ebay I go..

can you not put a straight on off switch under the dash somewhere might be a bit tidier

gfromleeds · Dec 14, 2013

Probbably could but just wanted it to look as much original as possible

I wanted an extra switch on the dash, for extra reversing lights, so I used the switch blank and mounted a tiny black rocker switch (Maplins) into it. Black on black, no-body, including other P38 owners have ever spotted it.

Ive found that I can swop the (head) of the switch so just need to get a eas lock switch or a cruise switch and swop the head so it still has the hi/low symbol but works as a locking switch then it will look factory fitted (I dont like too much aftermarket stuff) and with the matching gray leather headrest screens all will look standerd

hopefully
