Fitting TD5 Centre Console in Older Defender?

Jackattheback · Sep 21, 2014

Hi All,
I was wondering if it was possible to fit a TD5 Defender Centre Console into an older Defender? Thinking it as a cheaper alternative to something like a raptor dash/mud console.

Also, how much would one of these cost second hand? I cant seem to find one on ebay...scrap yard maybe?

Thanks
Jack

I don't think you'll tidily fit just the center console and I doubt you'll get one for cheap assuming it's the later td5 dash your after. More than likely you'll need the whole dash minus the main binnical. A mudstuff dash would be a cheaper option I think. If you want to go really cheap I have a used mudstuff dash which you could have for a few beer tokens 😜

AlbertDefender90, what kind of condition is it in/what holes does it have cut out?

just bought a mud dash new at the LRO show 45 quid, i dont think youd get a td5 dash as cheap

Ill be removing the switches and mounts yet. It's got cutouts for stereo, cb, carling switches, rear wiper switch and 12v socket. Comes complete with brackets. I no longer need it as I bought a td5 bulkhead complete with dash.

Ooh, Go on how much

I'll have it if the guy above doesn't take it

I'd be happy with £20 plus postage though I am open to negotiation due to some of the cutouts not being 100% brilliant.
