CaverD3, I'm happy to PM the guy's contact details, you could then try it direct. I'm still happy to collect them and forward onto each of you if that works. Formerly Disconutter

I am now in touch with UK supplier. Kenwood stocks are in Belgum and he doesn't know how many they have. He will let me know. He will ask the accounts dept about supplying ex VAT as well. Looks promising but we may have to wait for stock.
Watch this space.
Many Thanks to Disconutter. Getting there is half the fun

There is a lot of work in making one so I doubt it will be 'free' you will be paying for his time somewhere. Installer quoted $120 to make one for me. They are also usually vniyl covered and not plastic. Getting there is half the fun

I'm not sure which unit you guys are fitting but I have some info on the Kenwood DNX7120 you may be interested in.These are available of internet/ebay for around $950 .Bluetooth module about $125.They must be purchased separate to escape import duty.(max $1000).The Australian maps can be loaded via SD card or into internal memory using a PC.Contrary to what Kenwood will tell you this unit can be adjusted to the oz radio freq spacings.The only problem is the region 1 dvd which I get around by feeding back from the rear roofmount dvd or using backed up dvd's which are region free.Overall a great unit.
Cheers

Gents,
See below for parts required from www.Nexx.co.uk
I have purchased and recieved the The face kit, aerial adapter from them. But purchased the wiring adapter through: http://www.justkenwood.co.uk/install/show_model.asp?id=140. This adapter is complete with tails for intergrating the required adapter for the remote wheel controls.(NB this harness is terminated into a Kenwood block)
All up the parts cost £55.00 with freight. I am about to order the required adapter for the wheel controls.
Hindsight...buy all the parts from Nexxia and save frieght. The actual cost is less than shown as no VAT is applied.
Freelander 2 Mar 07 > CT24LR02 (This is the same part No for disco 3, and is supplied with a cubby if you wish to go single DIN)
This Fascia adaptor allows you to install a car radio of your choice without altering your cars existing appearance.£16.99
Discovery Oct 04 > Without Amplifier > PC2-81-4
A harness adaptor lead allows you to install a car radio of your choice without cutting any of the existing car wiring. £10.49
Hirschman to Din Antenna Adaptor > PC5-100
This is used on Later BMW 5 Series and Mini's after 2001. It can be used to install an aftermarket radio with a Din Aerial connection.>£11.90
Kenwood Steering control adaptor It is important to check head units are compatible,
PC99-KEN
This adaptor can be used with a PC99-X## series interface to install a Kenwood head unit with the separate 4 pin mini din socket and connect it the steering controls of your vehicle. It also suits Head units with blue wire for steering remote controls.>£7.05
All I have to do now is buy the head unit, and am seriously looking at this:
http://www.ryda.com.au/Kenwood-DDX-8639-In...dx8639.htm
which can be optioned up with this:
http://www.ryda.com.au/Kenwood-KNA-G430AU-...g430au.htm
or for msuic only:

The coded one in my prevoius post is for the 2007 on Freelander, and is the same for Disco 3 and RRS. Did a trail fit yesterday, and is perfect.
Have uploaded photos of the bits to my gallery, but await admin approval, then need to work out to post them here???[/img]
