Holes are 19mm as that’s what the switches are. You can pretty much get whatever configuration you like as long as it fits. I must admit that Max from Land Rover Passion has been great to deal with and very helpful Bow down

If the switches turn up today I’ll get it all fitted and post some photos and a how to Thumbs Up D4 MY15 SE TECH

Knocked up a few different ones many moons ago with my 3D printer .

You’ll have to make a hole to bring wires in .. there is also limited height if your using crimps

All done. The rubber coin/key/rubbish holder thing comes out so no need to drill as plenty of assess and room behind Thumbs Up

Started with this.





And ended up with this.




Will need to remove the console again when switches turn up and for the wiring but very pleased so far Thumbs Up D4 MY15 SE TECH

Looking good

If it helps in any way I’ve used these right angled connectors before now

Also in yellow , can get them cheaper from China

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/6-3mm-Electrica...0005.m1851

These are cheaper but alas yellow ones are currently out of stock

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Red-Blue-Yellow...0005.m1851


Where there wasn’t much room I ended up soldering some of the connectors

Also forgot to say ref quality of gauges

When I got the gauges for mine I noticed a lot of difference in display quality

Middle temperature gauge is OLED , dual volt battery gauge on right is LED

U Can see the temperature OLED display is a lot sharper
