Retrofitting DVB-T Digital TV Tuner to a D4 2011

Traded in D3 for a D4 2011 the other day, but it didn't come with a Digital TV so SWIMBO is not impressed.

Been Reading 100's of posts but retro fitting the original kit seems like an ordeal.
So just wondering if anyone has experience of fitting an OEM tuner ?

I do NOT need the rear entertainment system. This is 2014 and like all teens they are permanently superglued to their smartphones and tablets Rolling Eyes

Something like this:
DVB-T Digital TV Tuner Interface for Land Rover Discovery 4, Range Rover

This is one is damn pricey at nearly £700 however blurb says :

The stand out feature of the interfaces is the fact that its integrated into the vehicles factory system without the need of any further equipment.


I'm pretty handy though so size of install task doesn't daunt me, although I would also need the TV option Faultmate enabling.

Any advice appreciated!

Bit more reading has thrown up some other posts.
Perhaps this is a better option....

FWIW Works amazingly well.

Multimedia Video Interface GVIF from Hids4u.
Twin 96db mag antennas off of Ebay.

Took a couple of hours and is the best in car TV I've ever seem.
Rock solid pic.
SWIMBO happy.

Mounted the twin 96db mag antennas in the boot, one each side of the car in the rear cup holders.
Perfect fit Laughing

Okay now I get it.

There's only 1 x L&R output.
The other 3 must be inputs Idea

Should be better labelled !

Out comes the centre console again Big Cry
Guess I can tap in to the aux audio at the same time.
