Yes, it fits in place of the cubby box, takes about 15 easy minutes to fit.
Fitting instructions are in the RRS section on http://www.ownerinfo.landrover.com

Look for a RRS (Range Rover Sport) its there

Basically

Remove H Trim

Remove Gear Knob

Remove Gear/TR plastic trim (one screw buy EPB) then trim tool and pull up carfully

Unplug three conectors (make sure car is asleep)

Remove Cubby box lid two T40 Torx

Remove Two cubby box screws T20

Pull Straight up (cubby box)

Locate wire and plug for cooler

Refitt as above but with the cooler in place of the cubby box

As Slimer said 15mins Thumbs Up

ok I found the instructions. can someone post a pic of the product as well ? is it deeper than the cubby box ? higher ? the same ? does it fit a 2lt water bottle ? does it have an on/off switch or it works directly when the engine is on?

has anyone tried fitting an aftermarket fridge in this place ?

I had an SE loaner after a recent prang. It was a slightly lower spec than my SE. Surprisingly, the two things I genuinely missed were the 'fridge' and the bi-xenons. I think it's definitely worth sticking in for 15 minutes work and the £176! Holds four cans neatly, with an array of chocolate on top, or reverse the rubber cover and you can get 4x500ml bottles in. Love it.

How does it switch on and off, does the kit come with a dash or a localised switch?

Mine only takes small cans height of a red bull so, no, a 2l bottle will not fit
